Got a talkin’ blues or a dream poem?
Hibbing, Minnesota’s Dylan Days has a writing contest. No entry fee.
They have a Literary Night and also a poetry workshop that, in 2007, will feature the Poet Laureate of Duluth, Barton Sutter.
All this in celebration of Bob’s birthday. This year he’ll be 66.

from The People, Yes
The people so often sleepy, weary, enigmatic,
is a vast huddle with many units saying:
”I earn my living.
I make enough to get by
and it takes all my time.
If I had more time

I could read and study
and talk things over
and find out about things.
It takes time.

—Carl Sandburg
