It is an open-mike poetry night, along with a couple of other artistic endeavors. I&#8217;ve read &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.macphoenix.com\/creative\/jonathan\/poems\/raw.html\">Raw<\/a>,&#8221; &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.macphoenix.com\/creative\/jonathan\/poems\/springcleaning.html\">Spring Cleaning<\/a>,&#8221; &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.macphoenix.com\/creative\/jonathan\/poems\/counting.html\">Counting Backwards<\/a>,&#8221; and several other of my <a href=\"http:\/\/www.macphoenix.com\/creative\/jonathan\/poems\/\">poems<\/a> in front of a very generous and responsive audience. It is much fun. Consider this an open invite for any Thursday, around 11 p.m., to come on down and see me, and quite a few other more-talented performers, grace the stage at Munchaba. Need directions? <a href=\"mailto:munchabainfo@macphoenix.com\">E-mail me<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>But wait! Lingua Shapta, the fusion of my poetry with the musical genius of rich(e)rich, will be making it&#8217;s first live appearance at Munchaba&#8217;s &#8220;Carnival of the Arts&#8221; in two weeks. That&#8217;s Thursday, September 19th. We&#8217;ll perform &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.macphoenix.com\/creative\/lingua_shapta\/\">Raw<\/a>&#8221; and &#8220;Song XVI.&#8221; Wow!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So I&#8217;ve been fortunate enough to have been a part of _The Carnival of the Arts_ festivities every Thursday&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_import_markdown_pro_load_document_selector":0,"_import_markdown_pro_submit_text_textarea":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[15],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-39","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-short-subjects"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p8nj3d-D","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/macphoenix.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/39","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/macphoenix.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/macphoenix.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/macphoenix.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/macphoenix.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=39"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/macphoenix.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/39\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":918,"href":"https:\/\/macphoenix.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/39\/revisions\/918"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/macphoenix.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=39"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/macphoenix.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=39"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/macphoenix.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=39"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
