WHAT:
I am here I am in the middle I have this question. Was that a possibility? The kind of confidence of knowing exactly where you belong. Julien Poirier, Cynthia Sailers, and Jacqueline Waters take on “the un/familiar” in this 14th installment of the Canessa Gallery Reading Series.
Julien Poirier started in San Francisco in 1970, grew a few inches in Berkeley (he lives there now) and then moved to New York City, where he went to school, taught poetry and other things to public school kids in the 5 boroughs, helped start Ugly Duckling Presse, and edited New York Nights newspaper to make endless war stink worse. His books include Absurd Good News (Insert Press), Zoco Harpo (Gneiss Press) and the newspaper novella Living! Go and Dream (UDP).
Cynthia Sailers is writing a dissertation on perversion and group psychology. She is currently in private practice as a therapist in San Francisco as well as working at a publicly funded clinic at the Mission. She serves on the board for Small Press Traffic. And is expecting a second book out soon from CyPress.
Jacqueline Waters is the author of a book, A Minute without Danger (Adventures in Poetry), and a chapbook, The Garden of Eden a College (A Rest Press). Recent work has appeared in No: A Journal of the Arts and Zoland Poetry. She is an editor of The Physiocrats, a new pamphlet press: ThePhysiocrats.com.
