Mystic Babylon: S.F. Open Mic Poetry Podcast/TV

Hello. This is Mystic Babylon Open Mike Poetry Podcast broadcasting from near the Haight.
THIS IS A REDITED VERSION IN ATTEMPT TO MAKE IT COMPATIBLE WITH MY PODCAST FLASH PLAYER.
Sorry about running such a late show, but I did finally get it out. My web site totally crashed from late Saturday to late afternoon on Monday. Also an old poet named Drew Stroud on podcast 15, who recorded with Jennifer Barone had a stroke. Please pray for him. A friend of his sent out emails to a lot of my friends and apparently they were written in a way where it sounded like I had the stroke not Drew and I was in ICU. I got a lot of letters out there from friends thinking I had had a stroke. To all my poet friends out there who still don’t know, I am perfectly fine and no, I’m not know going to now fake my death. No harm done, and I do extremely hope that Drew Stroud gets better soon. He is still in the archives if you would like to re-listen to him.
Today is going to be rather relaxed as I have no featured reader. I taped this at the Priya Restaurant in Berkeley where they hold an open mike called Poetry Express run by Mark States. I met Joyce Jenkins, when of the people who runs the Poetry Magazine, Poetry Flash, at Poetry Express. I tried to get her to be on my podcast and read some of her poetry, but I think she had an old 50’s 60’s ballad going in her head like Honey Do, Honey Don’t, because she would alternate between yes and no. Anyway, please read that Magazine if you can. It’s web site is: http://www.poetryflash.org . Please pardon the lower resolution in the first part of the video as I had to lower the resolution on Mark States introduction through the software, to improve the lighting. I didn’t realize I had a lighting problem when I recorded it. The rest of it should be fine.
I think you will find show of mine this better than any sit-com, and yes I also programmed this so you can watch it with Apple TV, and if you have the appropriate extra hardware you can watch it with your tivo I think. It’s not HD video, but when they start using fiber optics more commonly in the U.S., I will upgrade to HD.
Again, please buy my books, which are, in poetry, “Spirits of Bondage and Inherent Transcendence, and in fiction, “Little Bird Told Me”. Audible is still saying that they’ll have my audio book, “Little Bird Told Me” on line, and the next date that they gave me was today or tomorrow, but I’m beginning to think about crying wolves at this point. I hope they estimated right at this point. The photo above is a picture of Mark States..
