As you may or may not know, Omaha is home to the College World Series.  The stadium is downtown, which is the city's most artistically inclined district, so this is convenient for us at Grawlix especially.  8 million people are estimated to be at the games this year, so guess where we're posting our poems.  Yup.  We're going to create an asteroid belt of poem stickers in and around the stadium!  Foot traffic will be insanely heavy.  The month is not yet over so if you have stuff you've been kicking around, send it in asap so you can poem in the face of a sports fan!  (Yeah I just used poem as a verb, WHAT?)
All right!  Thanks for joining, joiners.  You evidently see some interest here, whether it be in the potential catastrophe of this project or riotous success, either way, it's the journey right!!??  

I was out stickering one day last week at Memorial Park, where we hold our giant drunk old people fest on the Fourth of July.  We bring in Journey, REO Speedwagon, Sunshine Band, Styx (I swear to God, Styx is in Omaha like every other day), etc.  But damn was it hot out.  I had to retreat.  

This week is going to be in the 70's and I'm hitting Omaha's favorite bar district, Benson.  Oberst (of Bright Eyes) plays secret shows here often, also tons of open mic action happening around this area.  We also have a 23 year old's wet dream in this district, it's known as Beercade.  It's a bar that's also an 80's style arcade.  I'll try not to get distracted.  

I'm also bringing in a guest photographer named Anthony Lanza.  He's a fuzzy Greek dude who has an unparalleled eye for photography.  So that's exciting.  

Hey.  We need more people on here.  Drag your friends to the site, Like that facebook page, and keep submitting! grawlixpoetry.blogspot.com facebook.com/grawlixpoetry .  Cheers!
