Here’s a video of me reading my poem “Keep Moving (Home)” at the Kettle Pond Writers Conference June 23, 2026. This poem was first published as the liner notes to the album “Keep Moving (Home)” by my nephew Brian Citro (Calligram Records, 2026). You can stream and purchase the album (as digital, CD, and limited edition vinyl) from the label HERE. The CD includes the text of the poem in the 6-panel, full-spread digipack and the vinyl includes it as a full-size insert.
