poetics & possibility

Poetry, courageous expression, and compassionate action may yet shift the tides of foolishness and greed in the direction of love. I grew up learning that miracles can happen and I’ve seen many of them in my 45 years.This evening I’ll be facilitating Roxbury Read Aloud at Long Live Brewery: it’s a monthly event that’s just getting started.In this episode, I share video footage of Michelle LaPoetica offering beauty at the CreativeSoul Networking event she hosts on Thursdays at Village Tavern in Salem. I also offer a glimpse into the space where I find some of my greatest joy: dancing! Michelle Rubiera of 1 More Rep Athletics teaches Zumba style the Carlos Vives + Shakira song La Bicicleta.Whether you are speaking, singing, moving, or quaking in your boots, let’s choose courage over calamity and kindness over insanity.Thanks for reading Monday Morning Muse!
