XOXO, RO

Tonight, I give you a reading from New Directions' Love Poems of Catullus 
and a reiteration of my preference for the CH Sissen translation of Catullus 85.

Art event or not, put it all on a Carr's Table Water Cracker.

And if you have an interest in words, take 2 minutes to try this podcast out: Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day.

Thank you guys for listening, loving, hating. Always.
