Notes:

Gotpoetry Live was good tonight — very slightly smaller crowd, but the fact that there wasn’t a single Worcester poet in the house was kind of heartening — it means there’s a local audience for this that will grow with time and not be dependent on imported audience members.

The feature, Mark Binder, was quite good — more a storyteller than a poet, but funny and down to earth.

Next week, Adam Stone. Sadly, I won’t be there as I have a prior committment, but another member of the collective will be ably hosting.

In other news, I can’t sleep, and I’m getting mighty tired of that. I’d take a pill but I need to be up in the morning. I’d write a poem but I’ve got no viable brain cells to devote to the effort right now. I’ll just scan the news until I get drowsy, I guess.

I passed a bar today that advertised “karaoke and darts on Saturday night.” Lord, I’ve been praying for such a thing for years. I have so many questions. Do they supply the darts, or do you have to bring your own? Do you get more than three shots at a singer? Do we take turns throwing?

And most important, can I get double credit for taking out that fat guy who always does “Just a Gigolo?”
