Sam PIerstorff, The Final Days As Poet Laureate of Modesto

Mon, 07 Jul 2008 12:07:31 -0400

I guess Ed Bearden the new poet laureate be ok, but I just put him in the letter to the editor, as he's the new appointee to be Poet Laureate of Modesto and because Slam on Rye, and outgoing poet laureate Sam Pierstorff has some "juice" with the Bee, finally got a cartoon on their editorial page in the Print edition. See a printed copy of the Bee, better than the online version. Anyway, the "retired" er, fir/. uh, Ed got the next term, after four years great service from Sam. So, my letter, version of gold watch, which is same drawing in gilded frame I was going to drop by his office at MJC, only to still have it to give him July 12.

Oh, take his Poetry workshop, not because he needs the money after losing his job as Poet Laureate, as no pay, FREE, no get the dinero for that, like he can at MJC, see his flyer below as evidently he's needing the money, or without freebie required to do poetry free job, he's ....

Well, musicians seemed in short supply last night, if you were out on art walk, noticed reschedule or cancels, there is a virus around, and so if you stopped into see Dave Hanley at the State last night, found me talking to Rachel Renae and Hippie Dave, I was trying to get Rachel to sing without amp, go get her guitar, or start down the list of who's available on short notice. In case bonilla wafer noted a call from Rachel, that was us...... we called Mike with DAM, a number of others to no avail...

Why I am here

Thu, 13 Mar 2008 18:44:04 -0400

I am here
because this is where
I can overcome disgrace
with an open heart,
where I give hope
to heritage, uniqueness, commonality,
where spirits of walls, voices, books
hover over young destinies
