Hey poets. If any of you are interested in participating in a casual, outdoor reading on July 5th at 4pm, I would love to have some more getborn folks involved. It'll be at the World Cafe, hopefully on the patio if the weather allows. (World Cafe is near La Tropacana, west of Kingshighway and north of Chippewa at Mardel and Tholozan.)


If you're interested in participating e-mail me at poor.metaphor@gmail.com.

Its a short hour, but I've got some heavy hitters stacked up for the hour I'll be hosting Literature for the Halibut on KDHX.
www. kdhx. org


I'm going to spin two St. Louis biggies: Michael Castro and Eugene Redmond and the middle set will be a nod to the upcoming Father's Day which might sound kind of sweet, considering my Dad died last summer, but I think it will be pretty heavy...and it will be, I guarantee, the only set you will ever hear putting Saul Williams, Sylvia Plath and Ogden Nash toghether.



Here's some information about the Michael Castro CDs which I will feature heavily:

Michael says:
I am happy to let you know of the two CD's of my work with two great
musicians, J.D.

Parran and the late Joe Catalano, just released by Freedonia
Music and described below.
They can be purchased at www. freedoniamusic. org.



J.D.

Parran & I will introduce Kokopilau in a performance at The Stone in New
York City, Saturday evening July 12th.



Thanks for your friendship & support.



Michael Castro



Freedonia Music releases five new CDs
The St.

Louis-based label Freedonia Music, which specializes in free jazz and
improvisation, has just added five new CD titles to its catalog.

Among the new
releases are:

* Kokopilau, from poet Michael Castro and multi-reedman J.D.

Parran, described
as "a ceremony of the ancient future celebrating a 30 year
collaboration...Retelling mythic tales of life, death & rebirth with voice,
tenor sax, indigenous hand crafted instruments and postmodern techniques.

"

* Endless Root, a 1996 live performance recording of performance poetry with
music, from Michael Castro and multi-instrumentalist Joe Catalano.

Features
some of Castro's best performance poems in experimental composer Catalano's
innovative settings.



The label, which is headed by saxophonist/multi-instrumentalist Jay Zelenka,
also has a revamped Web site with a new l

so happy to be a future feature next month. here's something you will be hearing:

Amanti Mantua

Yon light is not day-light, I know it, I:
It is some meteor that the sun exhales,
To be to thee this night a torch-bearer,
And light thee on thy way to Mantua:
Therefore stay yet; thou need'st not to be gone.
—Act III, Scene V


Who knew to find
my world's best
kiss in a zoo? With traffic

roaring by the isolated
smoking exhibition,
a red giant
behind your hair
glimmering my eyes
& I find myself
using long-i
in repetition. Heartbeat

iambic, hips
so tantric, lips
like elliptical
galaxies in collide & oh
I never thought
the grind of bones
so romantic, nor that

dollar beers, jail bars,
and bad in-laws
make hands
turn frantic let

it rip and don't
mind if the rhyme
the crime the
sublime becomes
too pedantic feel

it roll through
pinky toes up
the spine to
the clichéd stud
in my nose
who needs
roses
or false intellect
when I can
have this:

gutter-whispers
whose wind
means more
than words

folded flesh
in all four humours
melancholic
& confidently
sexy

sex with spider-bites
sex like fistfights
under shady
basement-bulb-lights
sex like fucking
William Burroughs

sex like a stain
on your jeans

sex as a 4-letter word

sex: the rough-cut
line of your chin
brushing
my mind
again

and again
and again

and again

Dancing Words
press release


This April in Athens, OH, a three day festival celebrates the art of words, in writing and on stage. The breadth of writing and words spans from prose to poem, from storyteller to performance poet to spoken word artist. This festival will feature published authors and poets from the region and nation. Writers will perform and sell chapbooks. The artists will be available to converse, cavort, and sign books. The festival will take place in three different venues, culminating Saturday, April 19 at 9 pm with a spoken word performance at Donkey Coffee and Espresso. Featuring writers from New York, Athens, and St. Louis, Dancing Words proudly presents Jon Sands, a traveling word artist and son of Athens, as the festival’s headliner. Thursday’s opening reception will take place at a yet to be determined location. Pyramids Hookah Bar is hosting an open mic on Friday at 9 pm. This festival is sponsored by the Athens Word Arts Foundation, JKPublishing, rvmedia, and you.

*live words, love life*
