[Info mailing list of the Poets' Asylum]

Greetings from the Poets' Asylum.

Rushelle Frazier @ The Ship Tonight

This week *The Spot*, the weekly poetry reading at the Hotel Vernon (1 Kelly
Square, Worcester), will hold an open mic and a feature. The reading starts
at 8:00 p.m. with an open mic. This week their feature will be *Rushelle
Frazier*. No cover; bring a few bucks to throw in the captain's hat and to
buy a $1 draft. 21+

Coming up on Sunday, September 28

[image: Beth Sweeney] Join the *Poets' Asylum* this week for our regular
open mic and a feature by *Susan Elizabeth Sweeney*. Sweeney published
poems, received awards, and earned an MFA from Brown, but it took Worcester
- where she's lived for ten years - to make her feel like a poet. Three
years ago, she won first prize in the Worcester County Poetry Association's
annual contest. Beth now participates in several writers' groups, including
Shakti; features at venues that range from WTAG-AM to Holy Cross College;
presides over the WCPA; and serves on the boards of Poetry Oasis and *The
Worcester Review*.

Please join us at our new home, Jumpin' Juice and Java (335 Chandler Street,
Worcester). The reading starts at *6:00 p.m.* No cover; please throw some
money in the bucket to support the features.

September 21st Revisited

Thanks to *Lisa Beatman* for being our feature this past week. She shared a
mix of work from her two books by Ibbetson Press. Along the way she offered
place poems for each of the Presidential and VP candidates, a mouse
perspective on progress, the inner beauty found in flower arranging and her
relationship with fire. Always nice to see an area poet as our feature.
Thanks for the words Lisa.
