MIKE PETERS’ of THE ALARM Autobiography Pt. 2 HOPE  [1991 – 2005) – poet BILLY LAMONT –
“Billy [Lamont] asked me to back him and his poetry with some spontaneous guitar work at his Lollapalooza appearance and I was more than happy to take on the challenge. I liked the idea of doing something experimental”

I Am Honored To Be Accepting NEW YORK STATE ARTS-IN-EDUCATION NETWORK Offer To Join Them Due To My Success And Excellent Performance Record With NASSAU BOCES And SUFFOLK BOCES Doing POETRY WORKSHOPS For The Students In Nassau County And Suffolk County The Past 11 Years. :)! I Will Be Adding New York City To The Areas I Do Poetry Workshops For, To Keep To The Areas Close To Where I Live For My Few Yearly Poetry Workshops! Right Now. I Cannot Expand To Hudson Valley, And Upstate New York Areas, And Others, Right Now Due To Keeping My Poetry Workshops Prices Reasonable For Travel, And Also In Keeping With Primary Work Priorities And Responsibilities.

I Really Enjoy Doing My Occasional Poetry Workshops When I Can. I Actually Started Doing Them For When My Son Was In Elementary School And Middle School As A Free Gift, And Then Expanded Into The BOCES Network Really Naturally Because Of Their Word Of Mouth Success.

It Wasn’t Always That Smooth For Me. My First POETRY WORKSHOP Assembly Programs Was A One Off Independent One At LANGSTON HUGHES ELEMENTARY SCHOOL In Harlem Shortly After September 11th For Kindergarten – 2nd Graders And I Prepared To Be Like Teaching A College Class! LOL!!! I Managed To Think On My Feet And Pivot Thankfully Making It A Success With My Haiku-A-Cuckoo Poems And Others For Those Beautiful Kids! <3 & Phew! LOL!:)!

A HUGE THANK YOU TO NYS ARTS-IN-ED NETWORK! <3! Feel Free To Book My POETRY WORKSHOPS Through Them. 🙂 <3

It was an Honor to do this Video Interview about the VERY IMPORTANT, TIMELY TOPIC of – ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE & HUMANITY – with the awesome Armando F. Sanchez for the thought provoking TOMORROW WHISPERS series that was released a few hours ago!

I feel very passionate about this topic, that is on the level of Nuclear Weapons In Importantce as far as I’m concerned, and needs to be Discussed Now, and how AI Can Be Regulated nationally in America, and internationally, on behalf of the WE THE PEOPLE citizens of the world.
