As that headline states, the next Ruckus at The Duck will be:
Wednesday, May 26th, doors at 7, poetry at 7:15 PM and guest poet Jon Wesick around 9 PM
I've had the distinct pleasure of hearing Mr. Wesick guest read at Winston's Drunk Poets Society, and he has also graced us with his presence at a previous Ruckus. His poems are inimitable and often uproariously funny.
Here is a blurb about Jon Wesick I found on asininepoetry.com
Mr. Wesick has a PhD in physics and is the world's leading proponent of string-cheese theory, which states that elementary particles can be viewed as eleven-dimensional vibrations in cosmic mozzarella. In the four-dimensional limit this picture agrees with the Standard Model of Fromage with three flavors (original, nacho, and cool ranch) and two textures (fried to a crispy crunch and baked to a delicate crunch). Mr. Wesick has worked at the Large Gruyere Collider and is principal investigator at the Wensleydale Mine Experiment, which seeks to detect solar neutrino oscillations in a large vat of fondue.
Tell all your friends, see you at the Ruckus!!!
