June 20th: Chad Parenteau Features at Stone Soup (wait, what?)
Stone Soup Poetry meets from 8-10 p.m. every Monday at the Out of The Blue Art Gallery at 106 Prospect Street with an open mike sign-up at 7:30 p.m. On June 20th, the host of Stone Soup takes center stage just this once (probably).
For one night only, the host of Stone Soup comes from behind the podium to...go back behind the podium for an extended reading of his work. This feature was brought about by popular demand (even before Chad did a whiny "why me" post), so don't miss out on this opportunity to see Stone Soup with Chad as a full feature for the first time since 2004. Hosted by Person or Persons yet unknown. Possibly some kind of robot.

Bruins Haiku
Gloria Monaghan, poet and future Stone Soup feature, recently brought her class to Stone Soup to read on the open mike just before the Bruins game. They were challenged to send in their Bruins poems (haiku or otherwise) to be printed on this page. Here is what we were sent.
Boston ice brings strength.
The Bruins will take it home.
The Cup is waiting…
--Kevin Gebo
Swiftly gliding side to side
the Bruins soar, the fans pride
forever fighting, let's get the cup!
