Local poet, workshop leader, and poetry organizer Michael F. Gill.

Michael F. Gill grew up in New York City but has lived and loved in Boston for the past thirteen years. He writes at the intersection of performance and experimentation, and the vivacity of his work owes a great debt to the New England poetry community. He has had work published or forthcoming in Amethyst Arsenic and Spoonful. He runs the Brighton Word Factory, a bi-weekly writing group in Boston, and helps co-host the Stone Soup poetry reading in Cambridge. More of his work can be found on the Boston 365/365 blog, and at his personal website, http://www.bbtp.net.

This show in our weekly Wednesday series takes place at the Cantab Lounge, 738 Massachusetts Ave. in Cambridge. Doors for the show open at 7:15. The open mic begins at 8:00 and the feature performs at approximately 10:00. An open poetry slam in the 8×8 series will follow. The show is 18+ (ID required) and the cover charge is $3.
