Poet who knows how to Flow it.

Tonight, January 21st, I went to the Visting Writers Series: Alex Lemon. He came in an told his story through some of the excerpts from his books. Alex probably read around 5 or 6 within the hour that he spoke. His story is an interesting one.

Coming from going to school in Minnesota and popping Vicodin with warm beer, to sitting in a hotel room with his mom at the age of 21 during Hurricane Flyod.

I found his writings to be kind of random, but when I sat there an listened longer to what he was saying, it all tied together.

Overall it was a good Extra Credit Opportunity.
