NEW REVIEW —-> “Time is an Editor” - A #Review of Andrea Gibson’s 'You Better Be Lightning' To read these #poems is to be propelled, impelled, and compelled to cut through the bullshit and learn to act on love and justice while there's still time.

I host this week’s episode of “Tales From Corning”, taking us behind the scenes of East High’s 2008 production of the musical Les Miserables.

And much like life in 19th century France, it was full of drama.

🔊🔊🔊NEW POEM AUDIO—> “THIRTY-TWO(NO MORE)” I'm the middle child of 6. I cannot imagine having that many kids in my twenties, somehow still a 'kid'. But I remember when 32 sounded old. I had my son at 31. I'm thankful I gave myself time.
