On this special night we will discuss “In a Station of the Metro” by Ezra Pound. The poem is two lines long and filled with possibilities. This evening will be led by Steve Slemenda. Slemenda retired from a 25-year career teaching English at Chemeketa Community College; is a co-founder and active member of the Silverton Poetry Association for the past 18 years; is a member of the Mid-Valley Poetry Society; and has been reading and writing poetry since childhood and is currently preparing a manuscript for a first chapbook of poems.
