Tell me memories mean something and I will carve your face on a tree. Never cut it down. Guarded with what slaps and surprises sage and old E-40 cassettes from an OG’s trunk. Can we love in a city lost? Can we touch in a city gone?  – An excerpt from “Love Me Before The City Disappears”  April is National Poetry Month! And before it ends, we want to celebrate contemporary poetry inspired by life in the Bay Area.
