SLAP-HAPPY / John Berbrich: the gazebo
|
|
Isn't that a great word, Gazebo? It sure is, & that's where the next SLAP meeting will be held, this Tuesday @ 6:30, June 23rd, 2009, at the Gazebo in Ives Park in Potsdam. If you don't know where the Park is, look past the parking lot directly across from the Roxy Theater & keep walking. And bring your assignment, which is to write a soliloquy, as though you were a character in a play, like Hamlet or Lear. But write your soliloquy in a poetic style, like sweet Willy the Shakes. The Gazebo is covered so who cares if it rains?
Oh, & the SLAP poetry newsletter for June is available. You can pick up a free copy at selected sites in Canton like the Partridge Cafe & the Blackbird Cafe....in Potsdam at the Fields (if it's still open), Creative Spirit Art Center, & the St. Lawrence County Arts Council....& in Norwood at selected locations (look around). As usual, I am always looking for new poems, so if you have some you'd like to share in a future newsletter, send them to me at [email protected] Always like to hear from readers too, just to say hi.
I've gotta go now & write my soliloquy, really I don't have a clue. See you all Tuesday. Everyone is invited.
