What a lovely night we had last night!
Thanks to all the poets and appreciators who came out to make last night MUCH warmer than even I was expecting!
SPECIAL HUGS, KISSES and THANKS to Richard Green for heading south in winter (GOOD IDEA!) and coming HOME to DADA, even if only for a feature visit. We are honored by you, sir! Thanks for the pumpkin seeds!
After two rounds of poetry (and likely MORE than two rounds of drinks to the judges... wink!) ....
in THIRD place (AFTER a disqualification!): MARYA SUMMERS!!! (I can't believe you are leaving. WTF?! We JUST became close again, and NOW you are leaving?!?!?)
there was a .1 difference between SECOND PLACE: Jashua Sa-Ra, and FIRST PLACE: Matt Dee. Congrats to you both, particularly...
CONGRATS on staying PERFECTLY ON TIME, Jashua!!!!
and MATT! You've made the top three! AND YOU CAME IN FIRST?! WOW!
Love you all, SO MUCH.
