Lily Peter Award winner, Robert Griffith, read his poem "33"at the Oxford Conference for the Book held in the Overby Center at Farley Hall. "Your voice is starlight in the dark and I can't help but think God is dumb." Griffith wrote this poem in dedication to his wife and this poem, like many of his others, takes a comedic route as he describes his love for his wife.
