This was my poetry performance from this Monday.

Just vibing today.
Emerson is home from work taking a mental health day, and we hung out and watched the reboot of Good Eats. I’ve also been asleep for most of the day. I’m appreciating how slow it is today. More later, possibly?? -Allēna

I crassshhhed today.

We’re at Tabi Po at County Clare Pub. Legendary poet Ed Werstein is the featured reader this session and I feel like I’m at church in the best way.
Here are some pictures from the party so far. His work has a whole lot of range. I see why he’s won many awards. I’ve already laughed hysterically several times. I also learned a new word: haruspicate. I’m loving it. -Allēna
