David Trinidad Poet on Tea With Tosh





David Trinidad is a superb poet.  I feel close to his work, especially the poetry he was writing in Los Angeles during the 1980s.  I too have a thing for Girl Groups and that sort of Pop Culture that is expressed through David's work.  I often saw him read at Beyond Baroque.  Dennis Cooper at the time was doing the programming at Beyond Baroque. He had his own press, Sherwood Press, that was wonderful.  he may have been the first publisher to publish Dennis Cooper, Bob Flanagan, and Amy Gerstler.  A great era in Los Angeles Poetry world at that time.  Also on the same show, we show Shirley Squid Ouchi's art performance/video "Doing The Dishes."  A powerful piece of work.
