BFD posted a notice for The Daniel Thompson Poet Stone Fund benefit that is happening on February 12, in Little Italy. Here are some of his poems and some other press. The event is free, billed as “an evening of poetry, polemics, and performance,” and the rest of the details are past the jump. I’ll see you there.
This absolutely free event is being held to raise donations for a tombstone in Lakeview Cemetery for Cuyahoga County’s late, great poet laureate, Daniel Thompson, who passed away in May, 2004.
The evening will feature scheduled readers and performers as well as an open mic session.
Alegebra t‑house is located at 2136 Murray Hill Road in Little Italy.
Checks should be made out to “The Daniel Thompson Poet Stone Fund” and sent to:
Mac’s Backs Paperbacks
1820 Coventry
Cleveland Heights, Ohio
