Thanks for "hearing" my haiku. I would also encourage the reader to overhear Psalm 84, especially v.3.
What a beautiful poem, and eye-opening as well, as it made me look more affectionately on the old coffee cup…
Roy, thank you so much for reading and commenting here! I love hearing your own story about Thailand (we stayed…
Thank you very much indeed, Joe. I'm especially pleased that you enjoyed the rubaiyat. In my opinion, this lovely form…
There is definitely something wonderful about having a pen (and paper) with you all the time. No one knows when…
Fabulous poem; beautiful and expressive reading. Well done both.
Dear Andrew —
My deepest thanks to you for this wonderful surprise. I didn’t expect it, and I am very grateful, and truly honored.
My pleasure. This is the first of many planned readings, so I’m sure I’ll get around to more of your work in the future.
What a wonderful idea. I love the production. It’s thoroughly engaging and highlights Dr. Salemi’s superb poem beautifully. I’m sure its visual appeal and engaging reading will inspire budding poets.

Ok, fixed and re-uploaded here:

Planning on doing more, yes. My hope is that this will play a small role in bringing more attention to SCP poets. Can’t count on the mainstream institutions to make us famous—have to do it ourselves.
