Poetry on Bus Wheels, all over Columbia, SC


     Several of my friends were involved in this project, and I wanted to share the story with you. Ed Madden is on the faculty at the University of South Carolina and is also Columbia's Poet Laureate. A few other friends were involved: Al Black, Len Lawson, and HR Hook

   The intention was to bring poetry to a very public place. I believe that they succeeded.
