This is how National Poetry Month ends, not with a bang but a printer
This is just to say, if you recite a poem tomorrow (Sunday, April 26) at the 440 Gallery in Park Slope, Brooklyn, artist Nancy Lunsford will give you a signed print! It’s a cool little gallery; her work is fascinating; and it’s a nice way to wrap up National Poetry Month.
I will be training in all the way from Hell’s Kitchen (it’s the 9th St/4th Ave stop in BK, by the way) to recite my warbly rendition of Theodore Roethke’s “My Papa’s Waltz.” I think. If I blank, I will tell her all about a very important red wheelbarrow, how it has rain on it, and how there are some chickens nearby.
I can’t wait to find out what happens to the chickens. I bet they take the wheelbarrow and go on a joyride down the hill into the plum tree, possibly ruining the poet’s breakfast plans.
And then they attach a large rocket to the wheelbarrow. Or is it, in a comical misunderstanding, really a big firecracker?!
