A Word of Mouth Featured Reading - "A Journey to Embarkation"

Bob Ambrose, Jr.
Featured Reading at Athens Word of Mouth
July 4, 2012

The Athens Word of Mouth is a diverse open poetry community, meeting upstairs at the Globe the first Wednesday evening of each month. Open mike readings begin at 8:00 p.m. The featured reading is around 9:00.  Visitors are always welcome.

My reading this July was titled "A Journey to Embarkation." You can listen to a recording on the Athens Word of Mouth website (see screen capture below).  Photographs of the event were taken by David Noah.



Here is an outline of my reading with links to the poems. To stay within the available time (30 minutes), poems listed in parentheses were not read.
