SUMMARY:Kiss Me Like You Voted: Election Night Open Mic
DESCRIPTION:Poets are the unacknowledged legislators of the world\, wrote the poet Percy Bysshe Shelley in 1821 in the essay\, “A Defence of Poetry.” By this\, he meant that poetry reflects the real world and that the poet’s imagination is the faculty  which allows us to perceive beauty in the world–thereby helping create civilization itself. Poets are makers of civilization\, no less–hence\, poets are the unacknowledged legislators of the world. \nWith this in mind\, we invite you to the Election Day installment of the Second Tuesday Poetry series. The November 8 reading is a virtual open mic around the questions: How do we reckon the promise of this country with its violent past and present? How can we love when so much is on the line? How can we NOT love? \nOpen mic 15 poets max; 3 minutes per person–sign up to read at https://forms.gle/izdLKgzryo1uFzwLA \nRSVP for Zoom link: https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZYscOqhpjgrGNZ9calCIAyo_9KPb7XWmAy_ \n
