Las Vegas - Open Mic
Co-hosted by Brandi and Vogue
Wasteland Gallery
Thursday night
All gathered
Early evening
To listen, to enjoy, to recite
POETRY
Felt like a dinosaur
My fellow poets
'So much younger'
Not yet, worn down
Never-the-less
All gathered round
Fused together, our love
Poetry and Song
I like this poem of enjoying poetry and nightlife in the alluring Las Vegas.
Sounds like fun. Las Vegas is also a great place for chess tournaments! For many years the National Open was held there, but I never attended because it was held during the school year, and as a teacher, I couldn't take that much time off. Since I retired, I have played in a tournament in Reno, where I actually finished in the money! Six round tournament, won four games, lost two. Lots of fun.

I would like to translate this poem
Revisiting this poem. Oh, I long for the days when I can safely go back there for a chess tournament!
