Remembering Hurricane Katrina


In memory of the fourth anniversary of Hurricane Katrina, I offer this online radio interview I did (as my alter ego PodPoet) with BlogTalk Radio founder and CEO Alan Levy about Hellicane, the poetry project housed on this site which I launched during the Hurricane Katrina catastrophe in 2005. My interview was recorded and aired one year after Katrina struck, and you will hear me in the last 1/3 of the program. I talk about the background of the Hellicane project and recite several excellent poems from the collection.
