Theme: Viral Verse or Poetry in a pandemic
We have been in a weird place for five months or so and do not know how much longer we will be in altered arrangements. Regardless, there must be poetry. Possible topics could be isolation, social distancing, masks, or a zombie apocalypse.
Please follow social distancing and wear masks.
The location is in the Columbia Mall. There is a gazebo near the Spirit Halloween store. There are a limited number of cafe tables and chairs.
MC: Michael DeMarco

Bring thoughts and ideas – please bring your own snacks/beverages; if you want to send ideas and not attend, that’s okay, too
we are still under the sway of a non-living, non-dead virus….masks, social distancing rules are observed
