SUMMARY:May 27th Poetorium Too Poetry Reading & Open Mic Featuring Mark Luebbers & Benjamin Goluboff
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for a special Wednesday double feature edition of our monthly open mic and featured poetry reading series Poetorium Too at TidePool Bookshop (located at 372 Chandler Street in Worcester\, MA) on May 27th from 5 pm to 7 pm hosted by Paul Szlosek and (hopefully) Ron Whittle. It will be a full two hours of poetry and spoken word featuring a 40 minute co-reading by poets Mark Luebbers (Author of Flat Light) in person and Benjamin Goluboff (Author of Moe Asch: A Speculative Life in Verse\, and Other Poems) via Zoom from Chicago\, followed by the passing of a hat to pay our features\, a short 10-minute intermission\, and then an open mic with 5-minute slots for each reader if time allows (in order to fit everything planned into our allotted time\, if the event runs too long\, readers may be restricted to one poem).  \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMark Luebbers is a teacher and writer living in Princeton\, Massachusetts. Flat Light\, his first collection\, was published in 2020 by Urban Farmhouse Press. Mark has published poems in a number of journals and magazines\, including The American Journal of Poetry\, The Journal of Americana\, Wayfarer Magazine\, Apple Valley Review\, Blue Line\, Full Bleed\, Friends Journal\, and The Hopper. Mark’s poems have been nominated for two Pushcart Prizes. \n\n\n\nBenjamin Goluboff is the author\, most recently\, of Moe Asch: A Speculative Life in Verse\, and Other Poems (Kelsay Books). Goluboff teaches at Lake Forest College and lives in Chicago. Some of his work can be read at https://www.lakeforest.edu/academics/faculty/goluboff/ \n\n\n\nMark and Ben have found and shared inspiration in the lives and works of artists and culturally significant figures of the 19th and 20th centuries. They have been writing collaboratively since the middle of the last decade\, and together have published poems of “Speculative Biography” in Borderlands\, Eastern Iowa Review\, Misfit Magazine\, The Nasonia\, Unbroken Journal\, Paper Brigade\, The Penn Review\, and The Westchester Review. In 2018 three of their poems on jazz pianist Bill Evans were collected in They Said: A Multi Genre Anthology of Contemporary Collaborative Writing published by Black Lawrence Press\, and they received a Pushcart Prize Nomination from Eastern Iowa Review for their poem “Iris Tree Chooses a Role\, 1913”. Their collection Citizens of Ordinary Time was published by Urban Farmhouse Press in 2023\, and a chapbook\, Group Portrait Poems on a Photograph by Hermann Landshoff\, was published by Parisian Phoenix Press last year.
