he danced on the page and then behind the podium...

I discovered
An author I like
This is true
I found out he
Graduated from
Suny Potsdam, too
His books I could
Not stop reading
I found his web-site
And there I
Started posting
So much it
Was out of sight
I wanted to hear
Him read and present
I finally did
It was everything
I expected, it was
Time well spent
I joke about his
Being the
"Lord of Literature"
And after the event
I am all the more sure
Writing is one talent
And reading is another
To fill up a room
And create such a flutter
It takes courage, yes
And spirit and flash
TC Boyle is rockin' bad ass!
