Damn but you have a nice voice.

ANYWAY, since you played FAST AND LOOSE with your little POEM (Where was the 'and' before "Renting from friends?" When you just SKIP words you don't have poetry, you have ANARCHY! ANARCHY! And now it's back! So it is VERY CONFUSING. I may be deluded.) I thought I would THROW A SUGGESTION AT YOUR HEAD.

You showed up in that buddha tee shirt again
And that shit eating grin
that kills me
Because you think you're so smart

I think it creates a BETTER VERBAL FLOW and a POSSIBLE DOUBLE MEANING.

Also you should post more voice poetry because it is AWESOME and you are AWESOME AT POETRY and AWESOME AT READING POETRY and have a GREAT FUCKING VOICE. Like a RADIO VOICE or a RECORDING ARTIST VOICE or a CARNEGIE HALL READING VOICE and you should SHARE THE GIFT OF YOUR VOICE or I will ANNOY YOU WITH CAPS!

Ok, sorry, this is the 4th time I'm posting this because I kept messing something up. Sorry, I'm a bit of a perfectionist.

First of all, that doesn't even SOUND like you to me! I had to really listen to hear parts I recognized. Second of all, and this can go unanswered if you wish, but is this autobiographical? I just say it based off some of your past entries. It's a really great poem, I like it.

Also, no calls today. Sort of a double edged sword, I guess....

Thank you for reading it aloud, gave it a difference essence entirely... *soft smile*

Your voice is so hot and sweet. But I am really hurt that you call yourself "single." I thought we were engaged?

To get even, I have posted this with the icon of my other girlfriend, Monique. (Her voice is not so pleasing. In fact, she never speaks at all. Sullen bitch.)

Very good reading!

I hope you read all your future poems aloud, too.

you made me get a blog!

Great to hear your voice first thing in the morning. Do more readings.

Wow.

I mean it.

The whole tone of the poem changed by your voice and inflections.

XOXOXO

And.
Your voice.
Is lovely.

I guess I just imagined something earthier, maybe even a little grittier (must be all that talk of whisky).

Instead, it was light, and engaging, and just simply lovely.

And there was something I realized I have no experience with, and I wonder if, when I finally get around to voice-posting, if I will sound as Midwestern, as you sound- what I can only assume is- East Coast.
