Well, Simon, it was quite a week. Thank you for being our guide through Masonic rituals and family drama. I am glad it ended with the baby's fever breaking. It's a very human end to a week full of human frailities and foibles.
Such a lovely and moving poem, Simon! As for meetups, I learned last week that my friend and neighbor is also in the group. Such a nice coincidence! Does anyone want to join us for a meetup at my place near Bern Switzerland?
We appear to have a handful of readers in Minnesota and perhaps western Wisconsin. If the Twin Cities is within driving range for a meet-up at some point, I’m game.
Another great round-up, Simon! Somehow I missed the poetry slam—I must have been pondering the imponderables with Pierre and Andrei! Can’t believe we’re 3 months in…
There is a town called King of Prussia in Pennsylvania. Why? Because there was a tavern called King of Prussia in the area. Why was it called that? After a satirical piece of writing called Edict of the King of Prussia by Benjamin Franklin, our own American predecessor to Biliban. George Washington slept there. Or at least visited. In 1777.
Anybody around Boulder or Denver! I’d be happy to arrange a meet up. And Simon the highlight of my week is your round up. So delightful and informative and touching.
Simon, your “Run, run, run” piece is beautiful and moving and I loved listening to you read it. Thank you for this!
You're very welcome, thank you for listening!
Agreed!

Oh, wow! It's amazing when this happens. I still can't get my head around how big this has become.

Please keep me posted if there is a Twin Cities meetup—I am there several times a year and would love to join if I’m in town!
Keep me posted, I am in the Twin Cities.
Run, run, run so caught the essence.
Lovely poem Simon. Thank you.
That intro is beautiful!
Thank you!

In terms of a meet up I’m in Yorkshire in north of. England - not too far from you Simon I think. 🤔
Newcastle, so yes!

More south in Monument but always enjoy a jaunt to Denver.
Got it. Let’s see if there’s more of us!!
I’m way late in looking at these comments so may have missed the boat in connecting. But I’m in Louisville and would like to join any meet up.
I am curious, who is in Canada?
I am just north of Toronto, in Vaughan. :)
Awesome! I am in Alberta!
I’m in Montreal.
I’m also in Alberta
I would be up for a meet up in Vienna, Austria!
Bahaha!! I must have missed the poetry thread! 😂
Dance Little Denisov Dance!
I am a fellow karateka.
