June 15: A Taste of Poetry from Somerville

After a feature break last week (one which hopefully won't be repeated again this month. Tonight, we are featuring Ralph Pennel, a poet who is making a name of himself in the academic poetry world. He is guest lecturing at Emerson College and was recently a finalist for Poet Laureate of Somerville, Massachusetts. I hope you will not only welcome Ralph Pennel to the mic but give encouraging words to his students, who I am told will be in the audience. It's always exciting when classes full of new poets are brought in to potentially read for the first time. We've already had many new voices over the past few months, but we are always looking for more.
