The video of the Able Muse Press poetry reading from Friday, September 17, 2021 is now on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h2OQVZsab1U. I’m the first reader, followed by the amazing Rhina P. Espaillat. Unfortunately, our third poet, Gail White, had technical difficulties and could not appear, but several of us read poems of hers aloud. The Zoom event concluded with a Q&A session. I devoted my time to poems about my mother (some in her voice) from a new full-length poetry manuscript, The Teller’s Cage. Many thanks to Alex Pepple, Jennifer Reeser, and Carina Fernandes for making this reading happen!
