MARC GOLDFINGER
DOUG HOLDER
May 11 at the Out of the Blue Gallery 106 Prospect Street Cambridge, Mass. as part of the Stone Soup Poetry Series hosted by Chad Parenteau: Marc Goldinger poetry editor of Spare Change News and Doug Holder poetry editor of The Somerville News, will go 9 rounds, in a action-packed poetry reading May 11 7:30PM
Goldinger, 61, 5'9" weighing 158 has been training at the Spare Change News' office, where he publishes sharp jabs of poems, that sucker punch you in the end. A veteran fighter and poet, he brings experience and world weary knowledge to his poetry and boxing game.
Doug Holder 53, 5'10" 164, the younger of the two, has staying power, and has the lightening speed and wit of the great poet and fighter Ali... He has been pummeling
metaphors into his work since he was wet behind the ears. Holder has no fears!
Open mic too!
