About the Performer:
Justin Kolling writes heart-in-cheek poetry that makes all the genders cry. A self-proclaimed bleeding heart bastard and bear in human's clothing, he waxes prolific about his belly button, bumbling hearts, funny stories about poop, living ghosts, waking dream interpretation, and various fascinations of the
moment. He is also a Rock Bandaholic (of the Xbox 360 variety) and amateur living room singer-songwriter who had one of his songs played on Pirate Cat Radio. His written work has appeared in 50 Gallons of Diesel, Gravity, Purr Magazine and Lodestar Quarterly. He has
read at open mics at QOM, K'vetsh, Gender Odyssey and Femina Potens. He was a featured performer at the 2007 National Queer Arts Festival's Home Show, curated by
Cindy Emch. He coined the term "J-hole" to describe a new level of jerk and excitedly awaits its eventual proliferation into mainstream culture. You should also know that Christopher Walken is his spirit animal.

**About Queer Open Mic**
Queer Open Mic is a twice monthly gathering of poets, performers, writers and artists of all types to come together and share art. Proto-feminist and genderqueer in scope, QOM aims to combine raunchy enthusiasm, warmth and community, unapologetic queer, radical politics and sweet rhythms to create a space for spoken word, poetry and performance that is multi cultural, multi gendered, completely inclusive and dynamic. QOM is hosted by Cindy Emch and Mollena Williams.
