Return to the Joe Milford Poetry Show

I had a blast on Joe’s show last night, my second appearance on his internet radio show devoted to poetry. If you missed it, you can give a listen here.

I started with a Christmas poem and then we turned to Skin Shift, picking up where we left off after my first appearance on his show.  We ended with some of my new Marilyn Monroe poems, many of which I hadn’t read to an audience yet, so it was nice to hear them breathe.

Here’s the set list of what I read:

  • The Pickle and The Pear
  • The Astronomer on Misnomers
  • An Hour After the Meteor Shower
  • Aunt Eloe Schools the Scarecrow
  • Skin Game
  • Not Berdache Not Gynandromorph Not Even Two Spirit
  • At the Academy of Taxidermy Mirram Keeps a Secret
  • Samson in Reverse
  • Section V of The Metamorphosis Treatise
  • In Pursuit of a More Perfect Armor
  • I Am Not a Myth
  • I’ve Got Nothin’ On But the Radio
  • Monster Saw Mash Dust
  • I’d Never Face A Live Audience Again–Except With a Loaded Machine Gun–
  • No Garlic
  • I Prefer Gentlemen in Bed
  • M / Ghost M
