Let's get together and listen to some poetry!
Described as "a powerfully moving and joyful night of wine (optional), poetry, and performance". This is a free event held at Greenlight Bookstore in Brooklyn! Get tickets on Eventbrite as soon as you see this and know you want to go because they are almost sold out already. I may cancel the event if people aren't able to get tickets!
(Trigger warning: one of the poets talks about suicide of a loved one)
