March Guest Host Walker Bass
In Walker Bass’ words, he is just a dude who writes poetry. With a penchant for cerebral and lyrical lines, as well as understatement, Walker is much more than that. He is a gifted writer with a passion for poetry in all its forms, a student and a teacher of the written word.
