RIP Ry Frazier



The Bridgewater Poetry Slam, which later evolved into Poetrribe, met in a number of places in Brockton and Bridgewater, Massachusetts. The spoken word venue changed locations so much, it earned them the nickname "Pomads."

Poetribe was beautifully all-inclusive, mixing the quieter verse of David R. Surette and Victoria Bosch Murray, the more extroverted, playful poetry of Len Germinara, the stern voice of Frank Miller, and the booming voices of the more youthful attendees.

It was the perfect setting for me to hear young Ry Frazier for the first time.

Now We're All Down

The Brockton Library Poetry series had their March 21 reading cancelled by the library. This relieves me. They were determined to make the location as safe as possible, but it would have been playing fire with the human element.

Hopefully, they can go remote, the way I hope to with Stone Soup next week.Best of luck, everyone.
