Whisper
'Whisper' at Indian Rock, Berkeley
'Whisper'
I performed 'Whisper' on May 25, 2018 during Noor Al-Samarrai's poetry book release of 'El Cerrito'. The performance occurred during a guided wander of the sites Noor wrote about in her book.
'Whisper' is a simple performance. Audience is guided to sit next to me at the top of the rock. I lean over and ask if I can whisper in their ear. If they agree I whisper:
'I'm sorry that happened to you'
'I accept you, I adore you'
'everything will be okay'
'I'm sorry'
'it's okay to cry'
