SUMMARY:Second Tuesday Poetry featuring Fresno poets Michael Meyerhofer and Angela Chaidez Vincent
DESCRIPTION:MoSt Poetry welcomes featured poets Michael Meyerhofer and Angela Chaidez Vincent for its May  Second Tuesday Poetry series–this month at Bookish–Modesto’s very own\, very new\, and very exciting bookstore!  \nWhere: Bookish Bookstore\, 811 W. Roseburg Avenue\, Modesto CA 95350\nWhen: Tuesday\, May 14\, 2024 at 7:00 pm \nHosted by Modesto poet laureate emeritus Gillian Wegener;  open mic follows featured poets. Please sign up at event.  \nMichael Meyerhofer\n  \n \n  \nMichael Meyerhofer is the author of five books of poetry—including What To Do If You’re Buried Alive (free from Doubleback Books). His work has appeared in The Sun\, Missouri Review\, Southern Review\, Brevity\, Rattle\, and other journals. He’s also the author of a fantasy series and Poetry Editor of Atticus Review. For more info and an embarrassing childhood photo\, visit troublewithhammers.com. \nAbout WHAT TO DO IF YOU’RE BURIED ALIVE \nThe poems in What To Do If You’re Buried Alive are tenderly masculine\, self-deprecating and humorous. They are the poems of an adult male poet looking back at childhood and puberty with anything  but rose-colored glasses. He shows us how we see ourselves often through time—with a mixture of cringe and understanding. \nMary Biddinger\, author of A Sunny Place with Adequate Water\, writes\, “With a compassionate eye\, and his trademark sense of humor that hooks readers from the very first page\, Meyerhofer sends us back to our earliest memories\, and shows us a world of heartbreak and wonder.” And Jon Tribble\, author of Natural State\, adds “Through pain and loss\, Meyerhofer’s poems are harrowing prayers searching for ‘the charms of language’ that might lead to forgiveness\, to redemption\, to love.” \nAngela Chaidez Vincent\nImage credit: © Adrianne Mathiowetz Photography \nAngela Chaidez Vincent writes poetry and fiction and has a background of livelihoods in engineering\, mathematics\, and programming. Her debut poetry collection ARENA GLOW (April 2024\, Tourane Press) features poems about women with a daredevil oblique. Angela’s work has appeared in Oxford Review of Books\, North American Review\, 32 Poems\, Atticus Review\, and Bellevue Literary Review\, among others. She lives in Fresno\, California and is online at angelachaidezvincent.com. \n
