I really, really like this. Must be a theme in the air... It reminds me of a something that I keep watching over and over again lately.

I think the common message here is found in 3:15-3:36.

Thank you for posting this. Love his way of speaking his poetry too. It's one thing to write well, but to be able to present it out loud the way he does is awesome. I like the repeating of the phrases that helps what he says to really sink in. It's very visual.

Hope all is well for you. Happy Holidays, Happy Solstice, Happy Yule. Yeah, all of that! :)

Hi Bill... you're still out there, thanks for dropping by :D I tried to find your place a few times, but had lost the link or either you had changed it, again. I am probably going to change the link on my own blog, eventually, for personal reasons, but will make sure the friends, whom I know are reading, get the link.

Glad you enjoyed the piece, I discovered this guy through my friend, Maithri, of The Soaring Impulse. Indeed, it does add some umph, to be able to recite his poetry in such a compelling way. I, too, like the emphasis he puts into stressing his point. I believe this guy has some other poetry online, as well. Not quite sure, but this guy may be deceased.

Anyhoo... Happy Holidays to your and yours! And may Peace prevail in your world!
