A week ago Friday, I gave a poetry performance in Chicago. (I've dispensed with the term "poetry reading," since I read, recite, sing, invent on the spot, dance, scream, pace, talk, and whistle.) I was one of a couple of performers, the other being Steve Roggenbuck, who read, but also sang and danced. Ours was "Experiment # 49: Full-Body Poetics" in the the Red Rover Reading series. The audience was small (some being no more than three feet tall) yet not tiny.
