Dear All Seekers Of Happiness:
Remotely Personal Greetings is
hosting its second remote event of the Spring 2021 season. After any
winter or extended period spent indoors it's natural to want to feel
sunshine upon your limbs, even if like Bataille you feel the sun is a
cosmic anus, it makes sense to seek happiness and getting some glorious
sunshine on the face certainly helps to feel like Spring is finally
here. So if you've got the time & the notion split an atom, parse a
sentence, question the Truth & imbibe the neighborhood by tuning
into these 3 West Coast sun-soaked voices as we move out of the
Draconian past and into feeling the many possible futures Thursday, April 8th at 8:30 PM EST ( 7:30 CST, 6:30 MST, 5:30PST, 4:30AST, 3:30 HST)
Josiah Alderete- takes
the seeds he found in mother’s kitchen, these seeds of our art keep us
grounded in this world of shifting
reality sandwiches as our words and thoughts drift to & fro from the
land
of our Abuelas to the pathways we currently walk, mixing language of
ancestor's tongue with languages swirling ahora like salamanders
traveling from water to terra to vines of poetry wine
Garrett Caples - Is in the who’s who of special who’s the city shines a light on when the who who
makes other poet's who’s more possible . Who is that you ask glancing casually askance
at a highschool yearbook from 1938. O the vibrations shaking the hills! O ectomorphic delight! A rapturous erotic ekstasis narcotica is sure to follow so listen closely for the pop smoke of Arcana
Mimi Tempestt -- Knows in her bones it is true as surely as Discovery's universe of Gerorgio and Burnham that black women are gods
and not the mules of colonized worlds so take
care of the queens that drag, take care of the que of ears, celebrate queer
dears, the stags that make our hidden talents shine not hidden no more, but
bidden into the light upon a stage from foot to medicinal herbs healing words and song galore
As
last Season an email detailing the Zoom log-in info will be sent to
guests an hour or two beforehand. Once you log-on there will be a short
wait while your email is verified. The "live" event will begin at 8:30
EST with a brief meet n' greet, followed by the convocation, leading us
to the 1st reader of the evening.
