Rhysling Award-nominated poet Edward Morris performs a long poem '507' concerning the formation of a writer during high school. A challenging and terrifying piece on both sides of the mic, one which the audience at the Hour absolutely ate up. Good show.

Edward Morris and Erin Jane Laroue/DJ Primitiva team up for "Where Have You Been All My Life?", from Ross E. Lockhart's TALES OF JACK THE RIPPER (Word Horde Books.) For an encore comes Morris' Ray Harryhausen tribute, "Get Off Your Knees, I'm Not Your God," which seeks to treat King Kong as John Gardner treated Grendel and give the monster his say. This was written just after a lengthy hospital stay, and is quite moving. Inspired by F. Paul Wilson's work in THE STARRY WISDOM LIBRARY and a long night chatting with the great Mr. Harryhausen when I was a kid. Enjoy. We sure did.
