Short Order Poems…

November 1, 2015 by KR

…is a poems on demand group led by Timothy Bradford and Chad Reynolds that performs in Oklahoma City, OK, and this past Friday, I got to guest poem with them, along with Palak Chokhani, Ricco Wright, Charlie Justice, and Casie Trotter:

033

We were going to set up at H & 8th, but due to inclement weather, we set up in the Penn Square Mall instead…

PennSquare

…where we got to poem for such people as these:

010

I’m not sure how many poems we wrote total, but it was definitely a lot, thanks to this sign…005

…and the sound system that Jill from Penn Square Mall let us use… 019

..and to our lovely poetry waiter, Martin Seay… 023

…and thanks to the fact that Oklahoma City just seems to really love poems. Thanks to Chad and Tim to having me and to everyone who commissioned a poem–on such topics as “poop emojis”, “cats”, “science” and “rainy darkness”–on a dark and rainy October night.
