Poetry reading: Barbara Holland and Paul Oppenheimer

Barbara Holland reads selections from her book “Crises of Rejuvenation:” Crises of Rejuvenation — The inevitable knife — Not fungus, no, never that! — A tryst beneath a bird house — Autumn wizard — This certain quaintness — An abominable breakfast — Rag picker — My old friend, the sorcerer — In the cause of justice — Who says — The best of all possible worlds — Not nice at all! — A street throughout the years — High on three cups of tea — Take flight to Montreal! Paul Oppenheimer reads from “Before a Battle and Other Poems:” Before a Battle — Gauguin — For the woman Narcissa — In our garden one morning she hangs things to dry — A reply to a lady who implied, both before and afterward, that he ought to commit himself either to her, or to an asylum — Epitaph for Satan, who died a sea captain, lost at sea in the year zero — For a young woman — The fat lady of the circus — In the middle of things — For a certain unknown friend — Egyptian sonnets: a progress.
