crying baby) to pretend they
were Pegasus, flying about
the night sky. He sang a
funny, original a cappella
composition telling the his-
tory of the Trojan War.
With the sound of a sea
chantey or drinking song,
Bennett9s ditty required audi-
ence participation, especially
on the chorus.
<Let9s drink to the
face of Helen, for we9re
Agamemnon9s boys!= the
audience sang, sounding a bit
like pirates.
Bennett will bring his
ukulele, songs, and stories
to Sisters Farmers Market on
June 16.
Before the SPRD begin-
ning fiddle class played, the
teacher mentioned that when
people first start practicing
fiddle, it can sound like dying
cats. The group performed
three old-timey, toe-tappin9
tunes, including the classic
Old Joe Clark. The group
played well together, and no
felines were harmed during
the production.
Poet Becca Rose read two
linked poems about the mas-
sive flurries of migrating but-
terflies that one inevitably
runs into on Central Oregon
highways at certain times
of the year. Often, vehicles
literally run into them, leav-
ing only marks on their
windshields.
<Every summer a mur-
derer / they made me,= she
read aloud from the first
poem. Her work queried
the carelessness of mod-
ern humanity today as we
run over and through other
lives4those of butterflies,
human migrants, and per-
haps of the earth itself.
Subtle and lyrical moments
arose, swept along by clat-
tering plosives and alluring
alliteration.
The second poem pro-
posed a more satisfying and
compassionate scene: what if
everyone in their cars slowed
down for the migration, <a
moral law that you stop and
wait for the butterflies=? She
envisioned drivers waiting
contentedly for weeks, dig-
ging into the rations of pea-
nut butter they9d brought
along just in case, rather than
kill another soul.
Rose, who soon heads to
the University of California
at San Diego to earn her
MFA, was the night9s final
open mic participant. Then
bookstore owner Lane
Jacobson ended the evening
as he usually does: by read-
ing from a compendium of
obituaries.
He described living with
a family in North Carolina
whose matriarch was an obit-
uary writer. They and their
friends, he explained to much
laughter, used to write fake
obituaries for friends and vis-
iting authors.
On this night Jacobson
chose Jesse James, killed by
the Ford brothers in 1882; the
obituary was fascinating and
full of rich detail. The writer
compared James9 home to
an armory, describing vari-
ous weapons and the mur-
der scene in graphic, nearly
forensic terms.
Jacobson had just returned
from BookExpo in New York.
He sits on the Committee
for Inclusion, Diversity, and
Equity for the American
Booksellers Association,
along with its Booksellers
Advisory Council.
<It9s important to go rub
shoulders and schmooze,=
he said. This is part of how
he draws national writers to
give readings at Sisters9 local
bookstore.
Jacobson also appreci-
ates the camaraderie and
long-held friendships. <I
was on the show floor with
friends when I heard about
The Times,= he said. The
New York Times had just
published a feature about
Bend, Oregon, and environs
that week, praising Paulina
Springs Books.
<It was cool to be around
a bunch of my peers when
that happened,= he said.
The next Music, Poetry
& Storytelling Open Mic
takes place Monday, July 1,
at 6 p.m., at Paulina Springs
Books, 252 W. Hood Ave.
in Sisters. More information
