Rose Congratulations on your Mythopoeic Award!


Sørina I had the very great privilege of giving a poetry reading entitled "Poetry and Pattern," with selections from Caduceus at Nyack College on Monday evening. It was an intense, lively, profound event! I will provide a link to the video once it's posted. Meanwhile, why not check out this other version of the same talk? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HpszU7...
