Janet Kuypers’ feature 2/27/15
for the Paul Jos. Ryan book release
“Destruction Instructions”

    Janet Kuypers was asked by Lagoon Editions press book author Paul Jos. Ryan to perform a set of poems in honor of his book release Destruction Instructions.

    Kuypers was thrilled to be asked to perform for this book release evening (hr own work, no less), so she generated three poems based on older poems about difficulties in relations (and their “destruction”, if you will), and she also wrote two new poems fitting the “destruction instructions” theme. She also asked guitaristJohn to join he with an electric base to play discordant background music during her performance..
