New monthly poetry reading series focuses on LGTBQ poets often under the radar. Hosted by Jeff Kirby
I’ll never forget when an MFA colleague’s response to the plethora of queer poets and writers I presented asked, Why do I not know of these? or when mentioning Duane Michals as a choice for my studies, a faculty advisor suggesting I choose someone more ‘relevant.’ My intent in this poetry reading series is to give these often unnoticed, unheralded, unabashedly queer poets their due. – Kirby
