Had a fun time reading at Village Books with Rick Barot. We had a bit of a theme going: ekphrastic poems, love & death. We went out afterwards with a group of people to have dinner at The Wild Onion (?). Great food! I especially like the Baked Oysters Three Ways. Yummy! But the funnest part was seeing Oliver and Merideth, and getting to hold their new baby! Lucas is just adorable. A full head of hair. And huge for a 3 week old!
It looks gorgeous out now. I need to get outside . . .

An ekphrastic poem, for you (I tried this one out at the reading last night):
The Medical Venus
— La Specola, Florence, Italy, c. 1775

Love that poem!
Glad the reading went well!
Thanks for doing the reading at Village Books. If the restaurant where you ate was right behind the bookstore it's "Fool's Onion." It's great.

Thanks anon. Fool's Onion was TERRIFIC. Highly recommend it.
Hey Peter,
Great seeing you at VB! And thanks for carrying and burping the MEGABABY.
