Yesterday I said
> I'm off to a reading tonight (Thursday) (7:30 at La Tropicana cafe,
> High St, Fremantle just in case anyone is in the vicinity).
Suckarina was there and looking good. From the top:
bleached curly mullet
black-rimmed glasses below brushed-on eyebrows
red-painted lips in chubby pale face
red and green halter top over black t-shirt
box-pleated denim mini
fat thighs
long green socks with red stripes
red lace-up shoes
And sounding as good as ever, too.
Actually, we had a good night! With a couple of exceptions all the poetry
was interesting enough to keep my attention and some was much better
than that. A guy called Toby, whose surname I didn't find out, had
some really beautiful stuff.
There were a few non-writers in the audience - always good to
read to someone who is not fidgeting about thinking about their own work.
I made only one fuck-up in my reading,
and that was to leave out the word "the".
I don't think anyone but myself noticed.
