New Poetry Video

Yesterday I made a video of my poem "Four Weeks Before the Wedding":



Four Weeks Before the Wedding
by Gerald So

Your fiancé’s name
shows on Caller ID;
I imagine
my RSVP
upset you
more than I know,

and he's calling
to say
it would mean
the world
if I attended.

I pick up,
say hello twice,
and hear you
far enough
away to tell
you butt-dialed me.


The text was originally published in the February 2011 issue of Mat Black Online Magazine, and it's included in my ebook of twenty-four poems on love and chance, We Might Have.
