I have decided to take some choice poems, and burn them into memory. After holding them in my head for a bit, I’ll post them with comments. Some I have posted already as a YouTube video being read by Tom O’Bedlam.
If you have any great suggestions, feel free to suggest them here.. 😉
I’m not giving up writing, either. Things are just kind of busy lately in my neck of the yellow wood. Which brings me to the first one.
