Erotic Poetry Benefit

I will be reading as a featured poet in the Artist’s Union Gallery’s annual Erotic Poetry Benefit. This reading celebrates the erotic in the broadest sense - works that evoke yearning, longing, and loss, as well as the more traditional praises of desire and tributes to the beloved. The reading will be held in conjunction with the gallery’s annual erotic art exhibit, and all proceeds go to benefit the gallery’s good works. The event starts on Saturday, Feb. 10th at 7:00 pm and there is a $10 donation at the door. The gallery is located at 330 South California Street in Ventura.

Robert, you’re probably too young to remember the lovely literary magazine Yellow Silk, devoted to the erotic. The archives are here:

Just a p.s. to say I ended up being too sick to go. Didn’t want to pass on the stomach flu as my valentine to the world. But it was well attended and by all accounts a great time, garnering some media attention to boot:
