Reading Poems Together: The Spoken Experience

Join a community of readers who gather the fourth Monday of the month to hear poetry and discuss its curious powers. The poems of Jane Kenyon take the focus in November:

I got out of bed
on two strong legs.
It might have been
otherwise. I ate
cereal, sweet
milk, ripe, flawless
peach. It might
have been otherwise.

from “Otherwise” by Jane Kenyon

Discussions facilitated by Aptos poets Paola Bruni, Elaine Fletcher Chapman, and Jessica Cohn. If you feel so moved, you are welcome to bring your own work to read aloud once the regular session has ended. The world needs more poetry--now more than ever.
