Over two days in two locations, 10 poets representing (at least) five states kicked up a poetic ruckus under the watchful eye of MC Chet Weise, the Third Man book baron who also brought us the short-lived but fondly remembered Poetry Sucks! series. Participating poets included Anne Boyer, Ana Bozicevic, Paige Taggart, Sampson Starkweather, Kendra DeColo, Dan Hoy, Ciona Rouse, Crystal Wood, Adia Victoria and Caroline Randall Williams. Plus, most poetry readings don’t have a signature cocktail at the afterparty, but maybe more of them should. STEVE HARUCH
