Sundae Missile: The Mass of the Church of the Center That Will Not Hold

A poet with a performer's punch, G. P. Skratz delivers poetry from its ghetto. From 1969 to 1975, he led The Stone Show, a five-member troupe of poets & musicians, through hundreds of performances & two cross-country tours. After settling in the san Francisco Bay Area he joined poets Darrell Gray, Jim Nisbet, David Schein and others to produce 'The Actualist Conventions,' eclectic displays of theater, dance, poetry and 'art with no name.' He won first place at the 1990 Bisbee Poetry Festival's performance poetry competition and taught poetry at Naropa Institute at the invitation of Allen Ginsberg. In print, he is the author of The Gates of Disappearance and Fun, ghostwriter of the Three Stooges bio, Larry: the Stooge in the Middle, and co-author with Darrell Gray of Everything Else.
