I wrote a Haibun with the NaPoWriMo early bird Prompt. It is on my first open mic Host Duty at Joe Montoya’s Poetry Unplugged in Sacramento, CA:
On March 30, 2017:
I went to Luna’s cafe to be a spectator or performer for the open mic night. But I was bestowed an uncommon opportunity: I became the host of Joe Montoya’s poetry unplugged. Unbelievable.Ā I haveĀ a café packed with a great audience,Ā a half – filled list of eager performers and poet wanting to get on stage, and no feature to showcase their work.
I was definitely going to work some magic in this room tonight. But, I pulled it off and it worked out. So,Ā attending Joe Montoya’s Poetry Unplugged forĀ a year and 9 months, Ā I have worked every open mic show role.Ā I have performed on that stages as an amateur, a feature (Duo and Solo), and now a host.Ā So let’s see what is next? Owner?
Opportunity
New host rises from the crowd
New journey begins
