03/27/2005 Archived Entry: Kenny's Art Show Follow Up
Kenny Francisco's art show at Kafe Kerouac on Friday night (March 25), went well. There was a great crowd, the poets were all decent (or better) and well-behaved. I read:
Teaching My Daughter My Language
Eve's Curse
F Poem #1
Kiss Me Again, Now I'm Talking about Addiction, Not I'm Talking about Sex
[ Om ] Passion Flower Swimming Pool
Not the Day for the World's Best Poem
About me: I think I did well. I guess I have to feel a little like the audience will hate me regardless and then I get all "f*ck it" and perform with confidence as others (Kenny, Mary Kim, Zelda) said I did on Friday. Someone named Matt (great hair, Matt) said I ought to come out to Kafe Kerouac more, which I might because that's going to be the only game in town that starts at a good time for me. (I said I wouldn't complain about everything starting at 7:00 pm, but I didn't say anything about snide comments. And that journal entry wasn't in the backup anyway -- see previous entry. Gr.)
About others: Gina did great. Rose didn't show. Mary Kim was there from out of town. Vernell was there. I saw a couple poets I hadn't heard before and they weren't bad. I don't know if Kenny sold anything, but it was good press for him.

Louise failed to mention that I had fabulous hair that night.

Great hair? Yeah. And a Care Bear barett and everything.

Pfft. TWO Care Bear barrettes!
Really. You'd think Friday night didn't revolve around me or something!!!
