ORGANIZER: Charlie Keil
“It turns out I’ll be in Siphnos, Greece for the third anniversary (Sept. 24th) of my kumbaros passing. He was definitely a man of peace and thinking steadily about sustainability. Isaiah Berlin was one of his favorite thinkers. I will create a poem for the day and share it with at least one other person…”
Sifnos welcome!!!
Hello Charlie!!! I hope you gather all men and women on this beautiful island and all read poems together under the magical sunset…
dear charles
i’m helping organize a 100,000 poets for change event here in port townsend, washington. i dearly love it here and look forward to the 24th, but a very large part of my heart will now be on sifnos. if you happen to pay a visit to panaghia chryssopigi, i wonder if you could leave this haiku i wrote about a few days i spent in a cell there, in 1998, maybe let it drift in a breeze on the jetty’s end . . . .

Hello to everyone!
I believe that in a such a beautiful island, there will take place a beautiful performance.
All the people together for the change.
