I give poetry readings in private houses to groups of eight or more. Currently I don't charge for this but will accept donations and/or petrol money if the private house reading is outside the Melbourne metropolitan area.
To date I have given private house readings in Victoria, New South Wales, South Australia, Tasmania and China.
My family and I – Helen, our son Walter and our dog Buzz (black miniature poodle – housetrained) are interested in house-swaps in Australia and overseas and are interested in billeting visitors to Melbourne and being billeted ourselves when we go on poetry reading tours in Australia and overseas.
I like this. The sixth stanza ("If time is money...") of the poem that began "If pigs could fly..." was what I was trying to remember earlier.
ReplyDeleteMust put 'The Road' on my to see list. Have been getting through the Jim Jarmusch box set. Plan to watch'Down by Law' later.
P.S. gramstore.com is the main website but you'll find them cheaper at some of the other online stockists. At least I did.
Dear Sebastian,
ReplyDeleteI remember liking "Down By Law". Wasn't as thrilled by "Mystery Train" "The Road" is slightly marred for mine by what I consider a couple of audience manipulation scenes where the music cues you to feel sad/sentimental. "The Road" depicts a possible and TERRIFYING future.
Thanks for the shoe tip.
Every good wish,
Peter
