In Jan's jacket

Here I am at the Wordfest Invitational Slam in Albany wearing one of the jackets supporter Jan gave me. It's actually way brighter than the lighting shows but still looks cool in B & W don't you think?

I was just there to help with the scoring as 7 teams met to "compete." They asked me to do a sacrifice poem -- "be the Sac" -- to let judges practice. I did "White Privilege," a poem close to my heart. I scored perfect 10's, and got alotta hugs after (a few new gigs too I hope). A wonderful night.

April's been a month of performances and strong affirmations of what I do. For details of where and when I'm reading, see my blog (note the Past Events page, as events drop off the calender after they happen).
