People, it’s been a while. The main thing I want you to know is on Friday, March 20th at 8pm, my Almost Spring Comedy Show will be happening at The Artist, 249 City Island Avenue, City Island in the Bronx. $15 cover and NO minimum! You may even BYOB. There is a menu of light fare and delicious desserts to tempt you if desired but not required. Desserts by Jenny's Sweets.
The line-up (Joe Fulton, Shelly Colman, Paul Hallasy, and me) guarantees laughter. You will surely have a good time.
I had a wonderful Valentine’s Day for the first time in a while. ❤❤ I was part of Evie Ivy’s Dance of the Word show. I loved listening to the other performers and seeing the beautiful belly dancing.
I was on the bill as a poet. It was supposed to be all about love. I really had to go through much of my writings to find poems for this reading. Much of my poems are more about betrayal, hurt, struggles, and that sort of thing. But I managed to find some stuff to share that had to do with love though not necessarily romantic love. One was:
Feeling Love from the Universe
Tonight’s
slice of moon
smiled to
me.
I smiled
back.

There are other things to share – after a night of drinking wine at home, I awoke the next day discovering that I had had a water bug, and that I had killed it. I thanked God/dess for protecting me from the trauma of even knowing I had a water bug in my apartment. Apparently I killed it without knowing I did. I always wear sandals or sneakers in my apartment, never barefoot. I had much to be thankful for. However, I could not deal with the corpse. My best buddy/non-biological brother came over the next day to dispose of the corpse. Even more to be thankful for.
My first poetry chapbook, No One Called Him Topless, is a reality. More on that next time. Much thanks to Esther K. Smith, Klytemnestra Press.
There’s always more – good and not so good. But my main point here is: get to the comedy show on 3/20, 8pm for much laughter! We need it!
So much love to CGG-M ❤❤❤
