Veterans Day ... Papa, Tatay, and the Library of Congress
As I mentioned in my previous blog post, two weeks ago I had the pleasure and honor of being invited to read my poems at the Library of Congress in a symposium honoring the "Unsung Heroes," the Asian American warriors of WWII.At that event, I had the honor of meeting retired General Antonio Taguba as well as the Honorable Tammy Duckworth (Assistant Secretary at the VA [Veterans Affairs], a decorated Army veteran from our war in Iraq — where she lost both legs and the partial use of an arm — and still a Major in the Illinois National Guard). I also had the genuine pleasure of meeting

My Poetry Reading at the Library of Congress, Monday, 10/26/09
Hi, everyone. Many MANY apologies for having neglected my blog for so long. It's like I fell off a bicycle, walked it home, and then for some reason couldn't ride it again. The more time passed, the harder it became to pick up again. I promise to get back on the blog bycicle here after I get back from Washington, DC, in three days or so. I am typing this blog post in a hotel business center before I take the train into the city and do the tourist thing. Nothing like a new location to liven up the blog-making. Which I am finding that I'm having to relearn as I go here.
