The desperate pointlessness of life as only Shakespeare can describe it. I think this whole soliloquy daily.

The hobbling scene in “Misery”.

"Invictus" by William Earnest Henley. The famous poem bolstering the inner strength in the midst of oppression. Much needed for many these days. Recited by myself. Enjoy listening and I'd appreciate a comment to let me know what you think or your personal feelings about the poem.

I mentioned it before, but trying again. I will have several copies of my new collection HICKORY NUTS ANG BONE & Other Uncomfortable Tales for review shortly. If you know a Book Tok, Bookstagram person, someone reach, or even have a good idea where should send them... this book needs a boost. CAT!

“I Sit and Look Out…” by Walt Whitman. I was going to wait to post this but it’s too important not to post. One of my favorite poems of all time. It is the impotent God. The uninvolved adult. The pointless entity. It is evil. Recited by myself. Listen and ponder. #waltwhitman #poetry #god #humanity

“To be or not to be… by William Shakespeare. Recited by myself. I’m no actor but this is his thus particular soliloquy has always seemed to me. Manic. Desperate. Conflicted.
