Saturday, June 15th at Beyond Baroque in Venice, CA -- many Los Angeles Poets gathered to pay tribute to the legendary voice of Venice, Poet Scott Wannberg . In 2011, Wannberg passed away due to many medical issues...his legacy continues to sprout from the gardens, the walls, and the hearts inhabiting the literary arts mecca. Led by fellow Carma Bum , S.A. Griffin , the love for Scott Wannberg flew to the skies and beyond. I am exceptionally proud to be a part of the tribute, as I personally didn't get to meet and come to know Scott. However, I do see the the seeds of his words, and how they have come to grow and grow out further into the world, touching more souls and spirits. I am proud to read the works of Scott Wannberg and hope I can only do his words the justice of being read as he intended. With great respect, here I am with a very accomplished Flutist, Juan Cardenas , together we perform Wannberg's poem, "The War". Jessica Wilson & Juan Cardena...
Because it exists and so do I...
