Every year since 1996, David Messineo has written poetry for inclusion in his seventh collection, Historiopticon.  Fifteen years in the making, this seventh poetry collection by the award-winning Publisher of Sensations Magazine explores American history in new and fascinating ways.  Following Formal, his successful 2006 book, Historiopticon is Mr. Messineo's first new release in close to a decade.  The 2013 Historiopticon tour is the first time in five years to see Mr. Messineo "live" in a feature reading, and also will mark his "farewell" to public performance, after over three decades of serving education, thought, and entertainment to audiences worldwide.
