Rob Stanton, 2017 National Poetry Month

i am, admittedly, a night owl.  it is nearly 1:30 am.  the rain just started & is coming down in giant barrels.  i think it knocked out the internet for a few minutes.  after i watched a video & clicked on another video my computer told me i was offline.  i looked out the window.  rain & more rain.  i can hear it loud.  but this is our digital age & the internet was back up in no time.  & back to youtube.  here is a short reading by the poet rob stanton.  i've long admired this poet who used to keep a pair of poetry blogs in the early 2000s.  it was his blogs that i first read stanton's work.  anyway, i'm happy to find this video of stanton reading a clutch of poems based on the paintings of luc tuymans.  dig it!
