London Open Mic launches new collaborative reading series.

4/29/2016

0 Comments

 
Picture

Couplets: Poets in Dialogue is a new London Open Mic Poetry series presented by Chapters. It will be hosted the third Friday of every month, from 6:30pm to 7:30pm at Chapters (South) in London, ON (1037 Wellington Road).
 
If you want to measure the true value of a poetry reading—for the audience and for the readers themselves—you should aim your valuometer at what happens after the final round of applause: the informal Q&As, the handshakes and book signings, congratulations and introductions, the exchange of email addresses, phone numbers, or Twitter handles, the too-sincere compliments, the pinball machine of playful arguments, the two or three poets ‘accidentally’ holding court.

Couplets: Poets in Dialogue is an attempt to bring some of this value—the affirmation of community, the promise of new connection—into the reading itself, to make it the focus of the event and to make it more available to those poetry fans who don’t write themselves.

Each ‘episode’ of Couplets will feature a pair of London poets: an established ‘anchor’ poet, drawn from the list of former featured readers at London Open Mic Poetry Night, and a younger or earlier-career ‘wildcard’ poet. A month in advance, the anchor and wildcard will begin collaborating on their evening of alternating readings, response poems, duets, live interview, live writing exercises, live argument, and general poetic tennis (net optional). The episode will be the culmination of this collaboration, a unique performance sparking in the gap between two poetic minds.

It’s my hope that no two Couplets episodes will be alike—but that each will be one part traditional poetry reading, one part interview, one part comedy podcast, one part informal mentorship, and maybe half a measure audience heckling.

 ~ Andy Verboom, organizer of  Couplets: Poets in Dialogue Reading Series

Couplets episode 1, starring Laurie D. Graham and David Huebert, will be on Friday, May 20th, 6:30 – 7:30pm.

Andy Verboom hails from subrural Nova Scotia. His poetry is published or forthcoming in such journals as CV2, Arc, BafterC, Descant, and The Puritan; has won the Winston Collins Prize for Best Canadian Poem; and has been shortlisted for Arc’s Poem of the Year. His chapbook Tower (Anstruther Press) will drop in the summer of 2016. He is the managing content editor of The Word Hoard, a literary and humanities journal, and the proud new organizer of Couplets: Poets in Dialogue, a collaborative reading series.

CALL FOR APPLICATIONS:
 
While established poets will be invited from the long list of former featured readers at the London Open Mic Poetry Night, Couplets is seeking applications for the position of ‘wildcard’ from London poets who have not yet featured at London Open Mic. Preference will be given to younger poets who have not yet published full-length collections.
If you’re interested in participating, send the following items (in a single attached Word or PDF file) to coupletsreadingseries@gmail.com:
  • 50 – 100-word bio;
  • 50 – 100-word statement of your interests and investments (e.g., formal, social) as a poet;
  • 4 – 5 pages of your poetry, particularly of the type you’d like to read at Couplets;
  • 4 – 5 brief examples of how you would engage with an established poet at Couplets.
These engagement examples might include sample interview questions, sample rapid-fire quizzes (e.g., “Plath or Hughes? Brodsky or Walcott? Apples or oranges?”), sample preplanned writing exercises (e.g., “I asked you to write a couplet about Walcott eating an orange. Can you share that now?”), sample on-the-spot writing exercises (e.g., “In the next two minutes, write a couplet about an orange eating Walcott. Can you describe your process out loud as you write it?”), or—really—any other prompts for intriguing, insightful, or surprising dialogue. Please be very creative!
This is an open and ongoing call. Exciting applicants will be contacting on an ongoing basis to ensure their availability for upcoming months, and our poet couplets will be put in touch a month before their shared event in order to plan their collaboration.

The original idea for this series came from Frank Beltrano. Thanks, Frank!

True North

4/29/2016

0 Comments

 
Last night I went to my friend John Nyman's launch for his book, Players, (along with launches by two other authors, one from Toronto, Mark Sampson, and Dorothy Mahoney from Windsor). 

The venue was a magically spacious old loft, the large room above Brown and Dickson Antiquarian Booksellers (which used to be Novacks travel gear) on King St. down-town. My friends and I were dreaming about living in that space -- so much room, such a high ceiling, the old brick walls, those tall windows. I worked out where the kitchen area would be, the bathroom, the big sofas, my writing desk. And before the poetry began we were checking out what had already been installed, for instance a WW2 submarine's periscope. It pokes up through the roof. With our eyes to the lens, we could turn it around and see down Clarence Street.

The readings were wonderful. I could fully relax and listen because for once I wasn't organizing anything there. And afterwards some of us headed for a nearby cafe. Kevin Heslop was in one of his big-question moods, which is not rare when he's out with others, but now the Trump march was in the political air, and the Sanders wind down. Political anxiety led to social questions, then philosophical, scientific and so on.

At the night's next cafe, one of Kevin's questions was, "What is the true north of morality?" For some reason we didn't get around to tackling it. (There are so many ways of being distracted in a busy bar with interesting friends and beers on the table.) But as I wandered off on my hour-long walk home, my mind found its way back to that question via other things I had heard from the mouths of the youths I was following around, things about amazing people, about the astonishing things they've done. 

At my age, 66 now, one of the most interesting discoveries I've made lately is that many of the seemingly ordinary things I did long ago, seem to many people here and now quite amazing. I can tell an ordinary little story from those days and people are astonished by it. So, as I flowed along over the sidewalks in the cool night air, I thought that every one of us is living a unique life, an astonishing one to others, if not now then later, by it's sheer uniqueness. Or it would or could be astonishing if people could really see it for what it is. The implication being that everyone is unique, equally, to everyone else. 

Which answered, for me, the question of what true north is in terms of morality. It's equality. It's the acknowledgement that no one can be a superior person to any other. Or an inferior person. And that any other view  is akin to a religious belief. Things can certainly be done better by one person than by some others, but that doesn't affect the person's absolute equality with them. Even if one person is not better at anything than other people, that person is still equal. Our political system delivers this lesson by giving everyone one vote. Science arrives at the same conclusion by understanding that each living thing, not just each person, is a separate object in the universe. It's only in the subjective world of our individual minds, housed separately inside our skulls, that we manage to see a superiority or inferiority of individuals. 


And life makes it very difficult for us to see beyond those false ideas. When we were babies we had to look up to adults as gods or we wouldn't survive. As children we had to accept what they told us in order to get by in the world. As youths we spent all our time and energies, whether we believed it or not, in training to fit into the wonderful world of adults, a world still predicated on our parent's ideas of reality. And finally, at some point, we did become adults, usually after being suddenly buried in responsibilities. I think many new adults try for a long time to be accepted by others, if not as equals, then at least as inferior members of the group. Then, finally, they decide that they've had it with being put down, and with putting ourselves down. They just want to be equal members of our society. They've continually found their own feeble attempts to be superior to others ignored or scoffed at. Which is how they react to those who try to be superior to them. Eventually, as they see the new reality of equality clearly, they find that their last task is to reteach ourselves, to reteach their own bad mental habits, and their unconscious minds, which like to drag the past into the future.

Equality is the true north. 

Actually, I take it one step further yet. The very truest north to me doesn't even allow for equality. Everyone, and every thing, just is. We only use the term equality as a reaction against those other more-obviously unwanted, untrue and artificial terms.

Saturday's Guerrilla Poetry event through Stan's eyes, and ears.

4/25/2016

Eight of us poets read in rounds for an hour indoors and then we went out on the street for an outdoor session. In the library, about fifteen people stopped and listened to us. For me and others I talked to, not only was it fun, but it was great to read and hear some of the best poems ever written once again. At the open mic, we only get to read our own poetry. So this was a wonderful, unique experience. I read, for instance, Matthew Arnold's Dover Beach, Edger Allan Poe's Annabel Lee, and D. H. Lawrence's The Snake. Since it was the 400th Anniversary of Shakespeare's death, some of his sonnets and selections from his plays were read, including one memorized and recited with perfect annunciation by Kevin Heslop, along with, in the same manner, Do Not Go Gentle into this Good Night (amen), and that last paragraph from Kerouac's On the Road, "So in America when the sun goes down..." which I've hear him recite just as beautifully as did Kerouac himself many times, but each time is just so good, and then Shelly Harder, who read, among others, her favourite poem, Keat's Ode to a Nightingale, just as she describes the experience of reading in her contemplation below, the poem bursting from her in all its myriad ways. Near the end of our hour indoors, a young man we hadn't met before took the stand (the crates) and recited a couple of fast, intricate, and profound performance pieces of his own, then asked us for a word or phrase. Joan said "ecstasy", and he immediately, and without pause anywhere, composed and recited an amazing piece not only with long and rhyming lines, entangled but perfect grammar, with profundity built upon profundity into a whole that took our breath away. How could he do that? But he had. I was lucky to get his name: Clint Ruttan. And so the afternoon went. Those who missed it, missed it. Those who were there, revelled.

upon contemplating yesterday's Guerrilla Poetry at London Central Library

On this the 400th birthday of Shakespeare’s death on our milk crates we stand, teeter, and with books in hand we wag our lips. Hopped up on words, on rhythm, on the plenitude of vocal cords and tongue, we stand on our milk crates and read on this the 400th birthday of Shakespeare’s death, which may also be the anniversary of his birth, if historians’ speculations correctly show his mortal coil both found breath and lost on this the day of April 23rd, cruelest month when lilacs spring and memory and desire meet. And so we prop our voices and tell of the cold towns we live and die in and that special way of being afraid.
 
Think how resounds the passage of air through mouth. Articulation. The precise placement of tooth and tongue and how rhythms smack off lips and how rhymes plump the cheeks and sounds set the air slithering and the curlicues of voices batter eardrums and set neurons sparking. We hold being on our tongues, we birth sound from our lips, and, if there is truth, with each word we kiss it.
 
o place-giving hallowers, namegivers, o poets o see-ers o seers, enchanters of being, tellers of tales, gift-giving bards revealing, seeding the good soil, worldgiving historians of light

Reminder: Come and read at our new library series: Guerrilla Poetry

4/22/2016

PictureDuring the Nov. 2015 Words Festival in London, Aileen House took to the milk crates to read her poetry on the notorious corner of Dundas and Richmond. Organizer Tom Cull provided enthusiastic support.




​
Saturday at 2 pm, London Open Mic Poetry Night is launching its new monthly series called Guerrilla Poetry, to be held in the central branch of the London Public Library. This may very well be a world 1st. So come and get your name on the reading list.
​
WHERE: The reading will be held just inside the doors of the library proper, in the open area called Discovery Place in front of the circulation desks . The hosts of the event will wear black t-shirts decalled with "Guerrilla Poetry". The library will also provide a poster to back up the readers.

WHAT: Co-hosts Stan Burfield (burfield@live.com) and Joan Clayton, will sign up readers, who will read in rounds. At each reading, they will read a maximum of two short-to-medium poems. Anyone wanting to read after the event has begun can sign up at the bottom of the list. Poets can read their own poetry, or that of others. Audience members will be encouraged to find poems they like in the poetry books brought to the area for this purpose by the librarians, then sign up and read them. (We only ask that they have read a poem at least once before reading it to the audience.) This first event will only last one hour, ending at 3 pm.

GENRES: Every type of poetry is suitable, although some would definitely go over better than others. Performance poetry, by its extraverted nature, should be at home here. Any narrative poetry, with it's story-like quality, is fairly easy to follow in a reading. Many other types, however, fare much better when read more slowly than is possible in an oral reading. A bit of an introduction in these cases can certainly help to orient the listeners' minds ahead of time. Considering many in our audience will be very poetry illiterate, it would be good to introduce most poems.

TABOOS: We will have to make a couple of compromises between the wild freedom of true guerrilla poetry and the demands of our library setting. The library doesn't allow photos to be taken without authorization from the photoees. So its staff photographer will take any and all photos. Also, of course, what we read must be suitable for children. So "no profanity or very graphic violence".

WHY: The idea of guerrilla poetry is to take unsuspecting passersby by surprise. Those checking out books at the circulation desk, or wandering to or from the escalator, or youths from their area behind the circulation desk, or people playing chess to one side, or working a jig-saw puzzle, or a colouring book, people who might not otherwise expose themselves to poetry, could end up listening, becoming interested in poetry for the first time, and might even take to the milk crates themselves to read to others. (For those people, the library is bringing down a selection of poetry books and anthologies.) And to many, this will be their first exposure to the poetry open mic scene. If they enjoy it enough, they might even come out to our regular events.

This London Open Mic version of guerrilla poetry was inspired when London poet Tom Cull brought guerrilla poetry to his home town during the Nov. 2015 Words Literary and Creative Arts Festival. Several groups of readers stood on milk crates at various places on downtown sidewalks and read poetry to pedestrians. The main difference between that version and the London Open Mic one is that the new one takes place inside a building, the library, where there is no traffic noise to compete with, and which probably has a larger number of literary-minded strollers to fascinate. Also, the library, being a destination for people, has already slowed them down and opened them up. The sidewalk outside is just the opposite.

If you find some Guerrilla Poetry, snap it and post it!!

4/21/2016

For instance, if you take a seat in a public toilet one day and are confronted with a poem in black felt pen on the back of the door, and you find that you just have to read it (how could you not?), then do take a picture of it and post it here, or in London Open Mic Poetry Night's Facebook group page: https://www.facebook.com/groups/121795184827333/ .

But definitely DO NOT vandalize a washroom door yourself!! We do NOT condone such illegal activity. If we discovered it ourselves, we would STRONGLY CONDEMN it in no uncertain terms. And loudly enough for all to hear. (Even though we would see no good reason, either philosophical, ethical, legal or otherwise, not to snap a photo of it and post it.)

Some Guerrilla poetry that we do condone, however, will be happening in the central library (just inside the doors, in the area of the circulation desks) this Saturday, April 23rd, at 2 am. (This could very well be the first time in world history in which guerrilla poetry has taken place openly in a public library!) Come, put your name on the reading list, and try to distract innocent library-goers with your delivery of poetry, either your own or some by your favourite poets. Two small-to-average-sized poems per go-round.

London Open Mic Poetry is suddenly evolving!

4/19/2016

0 Comments

 
We are in the process of making a radical departure from our past.

We have always been a single-event organization 
run by a single organizer. But during this month, April, 2016, which is coincidentally National Poetry Month, we are breaking out of that mould, becoming a multi-event organization with each event run by its own organizer.

And now, instead of the one central organizer trying to plan every detail, which is only possible to a certain extent, at least without causing seriously debilitating anxiety, he is stepping back to allow others to take over the planning of their own spin-off events

This relaxation, openness, and "spontaneous" growth of new events and poetic happenings could continue indefinitely, as more people become aware of us, are excited by the possibilities, and create their own ideas. And the more that poetry becomes a part of the landscape of London, the more people will begin to see it everywhere, and not only throughout the city, but also in the community-building social media. Poetry could become the fashionable art of London.

It would follow that this rapid growth in quantity (as we create more spaces for poetry, and so excite more people) could provide a rich breeding ground for changes in quality as well.

Thanks to an idea by Frank Beltrano, we will launch a series of readings in the Chapters book store near the White Oaks Mall, probably in May. At each monthly event, organizer Andy Verboom will be pairing one of the featured poets who has earlier read at our four-season series at Mykonos Restaurant with a lesser-known poet who has not yet been published in book form. Andy is in the process of working out the format but it will include readings by each poet (a longer one by the featured reader), some form of conversation between the two, and of course questions from the audience. These new organizing ideas are so exciting that we may try to adapt them to the larger stage at Mykonos.

We are launching an E-journal, wherein each month the open mic readers at our events will publish one of the poems they read that month (if they would like to), along with a photo of them reading it. Also, the featured poet's three poems, interview and bio would be included, and possibly those of the poets reading at that month's Chapters event. The organizers (publishers, editors) of this publication are Koral Scott and Christine Ellwood.

Our already-announced series of Guerrilla Poetry readings in the central library (if it goes as planned) will have a spin-off in the Chapters book-store near White Oaks mall. It will be organized and hosted by Brittany Renaud. (The original series in the central library down-town is launching this Saturday, April 23rd, at 2 pm.)

London Open Mic Poetry is rapidly changing from a Mykonos event series into an umbrella organization. It now has eleven members. Projects that have been put off for lack of people to run them may soon be launched by new people who may want to work with us in the future.

For instance, we need someone to head our Prison Poetry project, a woman (since it would be in the women's prison in the Kitchener area) who has the time, the energy, the right expertise, and who has experience dealing with institutions.
We need people to try to start workshops and possibly open mics in other long-term care institutions.

We need someone to promote with the city our idea of having city workers stamp impressions of poems into side-walk areas as they are being repaired. This has been done successfully in St. Paul, Minnesota.

We need people to carry out our dream of exciting the city's high-school English students in poetry, possibly by means of a city-wide contest.

As London Open Mic Poetry grows in size, its abilities are also growing. For instance, we now have a social media expert on board, Koral Scott, who is reorganizing our presence on the internet to make it more effective.

We're open to people and their ideas. We're no longer just imposing our own.
