Stone Soup Poetry meets from 8-10 p.m. every Monday at the Out of The Blue Art Gallery (located on 106 Prospect Street in Cambridge) with an open mike sign-up at 7:30 p.m. On July 31st, Stone Soup welcomes habitual open miker, occasonal feature, and longtime Friends of Poetry member Prabakar T. Rajan to read.

Prabakar T. Rajan was born at the Cantab sometime in 2003 and has since then continued, with audacity, to inflict his poems regularly on hapless audiences at the Cantab and the Brookline Booksmith. Neither Brockton nor East BridgeWater are safe from him. His only saving grace is that he has the good sense to truly enjoy the open mike at these and other venues, where he savors and steals from poets better than he. No true poet is safe from him. That could well be the most generous epitaph he merits.
