2003 anyone?

Call me a luddite, but I hate when people post videos.  Sorry, I usually don't click on them. Words, of course. Images, I can handle. But Vlogs? obscure country-western ensembles? Two legged puppies and Scandinavian commercials? it's just overwhelming. But seriously, this brings back great memories. On one particularly euphoric second or fourth

2005. july 12th. it was my 18th birthday party and it was the only thing that was good about that birthday =)

thank you so much for this. infinitely better than batman and jesus after all these readings that poem Still makes me cry. I guess there's a reason why her chapbook is and always has been next to my bed...

:)!

this version is less intense though, don't you think? She's more theatrical i guess. But you can find more of her stuff on youtube under "tennesseemary" as the username!

mhm... it's def. less intense, but I still quite like it. esp. near the end (duh). I'm so stoked about that youtube username though, and tempted to favorite all of them. *grin*

meh, much less intense. not only that, but parts seemed outright disjointed.

then again, whatever could compare to a small, live venue filled with expectation? one thing i'll grant them: kalamazoo audiences know how to turn poetry into electricity.
