DESCRIPTION:San Francisco authors read from their work. That means you, too. \nSan 
 Francisco located stories given preference. \nMic-less open-mic. 
 \n\nLoose-leaf authors \nscat \nter \nwords in \nthe wind sha \ndow \nof a 
 library \n\nThis week Dalck Teblehei reads his $200 prize-winning short 
 story, Um Doesn't Stammer. \n\n$20 prize for the best Real Estate-centric 
 poem!! \n\nHERE'S A PAST WINNER: \n\n\nWelcome to forests burning\n\nEven 
 here where the morning sticks\nTo one's skin in moist, California\nCoastal 
 fog, cool enough you think \n"Maybe zip-off pants would have \nbeen a good 
 idea till Noon,"\nThe locusts have arrived.\n\nOn the other hand,\nApricots 
 in plenty, and\nPlums too, and peaches,\nOranges, pears, and apples\nFrom 
 the backyard trees where\nOnce Santa Clara orchards\nSlaked fruity 
 desires,\nAnd where, for long\nGenerations no one\nBut Ohlone can 
 recount,\nAcorns, fish, and clams sufficed.\n\n\nAND HERE'S ANOTHER 
 \n\nThere are murals around town painted by XXXXX YYYY, \nThe faces of 
 public places, \nSuch as, for instance, the Bernal Branch library's eastern 
 wall. \n\nIt strikes me, though, that in Women's History Month \nWomen 
 muralists ought to get half the space, don't you think? \nEvery year we 
 ought to put the vertical places up for auction \nSo that who does the 
 talkin' isn't just who got there first. \n\nYeah, let the boys pay the 
 girls not to put up stuff if \nThe boys want to keep that public view shed 
 theirs. \nI mean, if the girls like the stuff already there, \nDon't bid 
 for the space. Let it ride. \n\nBut humdinger, if Benioff wants to shout to 
 the world \nWith that great big Omphallo thing, but some gal with a brush 
 \nAnd a can of paint has something to say, \nI say, make him have to pay 
 her not to splash her story in the air. \nIt's our sky, isn't it? \nWell 
 isn't it? \n\nAND NOW, THE MUSEABLE FEAST: \nThere's a 
 complementary/complimentary full-on meal after the open mic. Join us! \nFor
