The New Year’s Day Marathon Reading at the St. Mark’s Poetry Project will start in about 12 hours. (It is close to 9 a.m. in Long Beach, California right now, and noon in New York City. I can’t think of a better way to celebrate the beginning of 2021 than to listen to a continuous broadcast of poetry and music from one of most important literary gathering centers of the past 50 years. This year’s 47th annual event will include four dozen of my favorite poets, and I only wish we could actually gather in the church and celebrate together, face to face, with happy hugs. Next year, in St. Mark’s!
Happy New Year, dear comrades and readers!!
