Thanks to Sergio Gomez for inviting us, and to everyone who came and requested poems on topics from “Halloween” to “Fancy Things” to “Life/Death” to “Full Moon.” Stay tuned to the PWYW tumblr for the poems themselves, and save the date of Sunday, December 15 when we’ll be appearing in one of the holiday Dose Markets at their new location in Wicker Park!
