On Sunday, October 30, Bloof Books, one of our favorite indie presses, is hosting a street-art parade of costumed poets through the West Village in the spooky spirit of Halloween. Hanna Andrews, Shanna Compton, Marisa Crawford, Nada Gordon, Jennifer Michael Hecht, Becca Klaver, Jennifer L. Knox, Mark Lamoureux, Sharon Mesmer, K. Silem Mohammad, Danielle Pafunda & Jennifer Tamayo will be haunting public parks and plazas, trick-or-treating unsuspecting pedestrians to their creepiest poems. Please join us at the Four-Faced Liar at 6:00 PM for introductions, or meet us somewhere along the way.* (check here for the route map.) We'll complete the circuit by reconvening at the Liar for one more round of poems (and a few rounds of drinks), plus an open-mike for other costumed guests.

THE RULE OF THUMB
by T.P.Winch
Ringfinger was nervous
Pinky terrified
when they learned
that Hand might succumb
to the rule of Thumb.
