Tonight was really good. I got back on the stage after what seemed like a very long hiatus. It was so good; so energizing.
More importantly, I got to hear a lot of poems and poets. Some were good, some were bad, and some blew my socks off. All, however, were genuine and evocative. I was reminded tonight that we all have a need to express our inner selves. Some do it through poetry, some through, dance, some through music, some through straight up conversation, and so many other ways. It doesn't matter how erudite you are, we all want to contribute something of meaning and value to this world. And, we all have something to give. I am grateful for the brave souls who gave tonight in their own way.
Yes, tonight was a good night. A good night, indeed.
