Last weekend I attended a Kyoto Journal sponsored poetry reading with John Brandi and Renée Gregorio. It was a super cosy affair in the wonderful Kyoto Nama Chocolate organic teahouse, with lots of good conversation and poetic inspiration! Many thanks also to the hosts for the fantastic cakes and chocolate! Stewart Wachs promises to have a full video of the event (including Preston Houser‘s soul cleansing shakuhachi performance) up online at a later date. Until then however, here’s a short taster from the end of the event – the shorter poems. My apologies for the sound quality. I’ve no idea what happened there…
My apologies also for not getting this up sooner – I left my camera at the venue! Many thanks to Stewart for getting it back to me!
