As years passed, I have watched Maramis transform into a cutting edge writer, a huntress of sorts, netting abandoned feelings into gilded cages of words. Her poetry paints pictures of emotions trapped in us all. She has a way to free these feelings by giving them life through her uncanny perception and mastery of language.

As delighted as I was to present some of the finest underground performing artists to Las Vegas – Nirvana, 9-Inch Nails, Richard Elliot, Hiroshima, Clara Ward Gospel Singers and Concrete Blonde, to name a few – it is with the same excitement that I present this beautiful poet, Maramis, to you now...

 Calamity Jayne, the [former] notorious performing artist and [former] club owner known for her irreverent singing and mingling talents in the Underground Music scene, has been referred to – according to Rolling Stone Magazine – as the girl who innovated drastic change in the music and entertainment capital of the world: Las Vegas. From the Aladdin Hotel to Calamity's Concert House to Boulder City's bawdiest boutique and underground cabaret, her name is legend among her fans and creditors.
