Tip for Tip

This young man offering poems by donation in Washington Square Park––an old haunt of mine as a graduate student at NYU––has given me an idea. 

 

I tip my hat to you, for showing up, for stopping by and reading a poem or two. The ones posted directly here, as well as the ones published by journals shared via links, are all freely given, without compensation. If you feel like dropping a tip in my hat, to pay for a cup of tea, perhaps, I thank you for this kindness! My Venmo is @Charise-Hoge. 

 

Cheers,
Charise
