If you're in Lawton on Thursday, March 11, 6:30 p.m., and you're needing a poetry fix, we have the event for you. Just for you. We're thoughtful like that.
Sigma Tau Delta is hosting Re-verse. The event will be held at the Student Activities Center (across from the student union) at Cameron University. Sigma Tau Delta will provide some food and drink and the event will have an intermission.
Thirty poetry lovers, from the Cameron and Lawton communities, will recite one of their favorite poems. As long as the poem isn't your own, it will work for this event. So far we have between ten and fifteen people who have signed up. If you're interested you can let us know on here or contact Amber Harrington, Dr. William Carney, or me at Cameron.
Sigma Tau Delta is asking for donations of canned food. These will go to the Lawton Food Bank. Anyone who can contribute a can or five, whether they are a presenter or listener, is encouraged to donate.
We're hoping that we hear a variety of poems, from the classics to contemporary to silly poems. I'm planning to recite the poem of an up-and-coming teen-aged poet. At least one poet will recite in a language other than English. Poems in any language are welcome. Is there a sonnet in Klingon? If so, someone should definitely recite it.
