Meeting Karl Kempton


I met the visual poet Karl Kempton face to face for the first time last weekend (he is on the right). My wife and I experienced a wonderful dinner/picnic with Karl and his wife on the shore of Pismo beach. He gave me a stack of his books and publications to read. It was a grand meeting however; it went by way too fast. Here is a shot (above) of Karl and I located in the beautiful garden designed by Ruth Kempton.
Here is a link to one of my favorite essays of his.

Really exciting. I'm glad to see that you both met and it would have been a real good experience for both of you. Sorry for being late at this post. I haven't been to the blogger world since long time. :-)
