Janet Kuypers 20250702 This poetry feature was shared in 2011, then shared in 2016 (but the links were not saved), so this is SO worth sharing again across social media. I had a scheduled Beach Poets Chicago feature on July 3rd 2011, but the Reader newspaper listed the date as June 29th — so we did an “IPB: Impromptu Poetry on the Beach” feature on a Wednesday afternoon (thank you to Peter Bartels for the accompanying guitar) of different poetry from my original feature. Enjoy this feature-length YouTube video from 6/29/11 of Janet Kuypers’ Beach Poets “IPB: Impromptu Poetry on the Beach” feature, including her poems “Coquinas”, “Broke the Reflection”, “You Cannot Burn Me”, “Update 2011 on the Man who Loved me”, “My First Time”, “I’m Sure We Killed It”, “Elephants Carry the World”, “Falling from the Sky”, and “Everything was Alive and Dying” (video posted on Facebook, Twitter/X, Linkedin, Pinterest, Instagram, and Tumblr). #janetkuyperspoetryshow #janetkuypers #janetkuyperspoetry #janetkuyperschicago #janetkuypersfeature

Janet Kuypers 20250702 We kept this Chicago building medley door design up for ~ a week to see if all of the wood pieces would stay on the door. The top of one section of the Stars tower was loose and the top of another section of the Sears tower fell off, so we’re gluing them down again and using weights to make sure the wood will stay in place before we stain it.
