Gary Jackson returns to Smallville

Mising You, Metropolis = superhero + elegy + ideologicial examination. Gary gave his reading at Washburn yesterday, and it was a treat to have him in Top City again. Lisa was here, too, so the old Washburn gang of 04 was assembled like the Avengers, having a great time. He visited my Freshman + Advanced Comp class in the morning. Reading @ 4. Dinner at Tuptim Thai. His stories about his reading tour were fun--his AWP experience. At the bar with Kevin Young and Ed Skoog--yes, another Topeka poet!
