Minutes for 4 June 2009

Attendance
Record attendance! Including: Kauri, Igor, Suzie, Chris, Jessica, Megan, Taylor, James, Josh, and Diane.

The Poems
Many excellent poems shared, including a number of entertaining Prohibition songs that Megan got from original early 20th century sources. Igor astounded us with his poetic fluency in a language that is not his native tongue. Suzie read a psalm of her own composition written for her "Bible as Literature" class, plus a humorous quasi-psalm regarding her quest for a mate. Kauri began a sonnet (those are hard to finish in one club meeting) and Diane described her father as a fly assassin (meaning one who assassinates flies, not an assassin who is "fly", though I'm sure Diane's dad would be a really cool assassin should he pursue that occupation.) Jessica shared an introspective poem and another about sitting by the volleyball court. James read us a poem he wrote to one of his many female admirers. I added another tragic poem to my series of several (remember "And Ye Would Not!" ?) Megan proved herself adept at anti-liquor crusading as she tried her hand at Prohibition rally song-writing. And Chris recited his fabulous "Bats".

Refreshments
Ice cream was eaten later on, courtesy of Seth and his recent asceticism. Thanks, Seth!

Announcements
Next week we will meet at 8pm so we can go meet at a park or some other outdoor place and still have sufficient light.
