SUMMARY:Second Tuesday @ Barkin' Dog - on Zoom
DESCRIPTION:The Modesto-Stanislaus Poetry Center and host Stella Beratlis are pleased to feature poets Lelania Fowler and Salvatore Salerno for Second Tuesday Poetry on Tuesday May 11\, 2021. Join the reading via Zoom at 7 pm (https://cccconfer.zoom.us/j/92855890148) and sign up for open mic (3 mins each poet\, maximum 10 poets) following the featured poets. \nZoom link: https://cccconfer.zoom.us/j/92855890148 \nOpen Mic signup: https://form.jotform.com/berattle/secondtuesday \n\nLelania Fowler \nBorn and reared on the Eastside of Santa Barbara\, California\, Lelania Fowler experienced a Chicano/Hippie hybrid childhood. Later as a homeless teen\, she bounced between Long Beach\, Hollywood\, and her hometown of Santa Barbara before relocating to Sacramento. In the late 1980s\, she became part of a thriving music and arts scene and she began songwriting for local musicians.She writes about PTSD\, sexual violence\, California nature themes\, and is a mental health activist.Her poetry has most recently been published in Quiet Rooms\, a global anthology published by Cold River Press. Under a Milk Glass Moon is her first collection of poetry. \nAbout Under a Milk Glass Moon: \n“An excellent debut collection of poetry. Lelania’s long strophic lines and sparkler-like images propel these excursions into another realm. The work is not lyrical or narrative but cuts a lovely landscape between these genres. Refreshing to read and re-read.”  –D.R. Wagner \n“Lelania Fowler’s Under A Milk Glass Moon is\, I am convinced\, a collection of hymns to the Hindu goddess Kali\, Mother of All\, adorned in her necklace of human heads. There is a female energy in this writing to which I\, as a male\, have been blind and deaf\, a feminine language in which I am not fluent. Even so\, the poems themselves contain keys to help me unlock doors I\nnever knew existed.” —Robert Lee Haycock \n  \nSalvatore Salerno \nSalvatore Salerno has an M.F.A. from University of North Carolina\, where he was awarded The Academy of American Poets University Prize. He is retired from teaching English and Drama at Grace Davis High School. More than 120 of his poems have been published in numerous periodicals. His latest poetry book is Hello\, Posterity. He has also independently published volumes of nonfiction\, plays\, and short stories. \nSalvatore is a board member of Modesto-Stanislaus Poetry Center\, and he is also the president of the Stanislaus Audubon Society. He is the current poet laureate of Modesto.
