Sorry it's not currying it's cutting!x

@29harveydinio maybe if you didn't change your accent because I think it's fine but maybe ununciate a bit better. Like not currying the ts out at the end of words. It's just a suggestion ! I really enjoyed it!

@1JSG Sorry, I do not understand what you are going on about, "currying" and "cutting"?

But speaking about my ununciation this was one of my first poetry videos, I have more recent videos that are of better quality in my opinion. But my ununciation is never going to be perfect I have a working class, southern, British accent and as George Orwell said "class is branded on the tongue".

this accent does not suit this poem!

[29harveydinio]

@twright63 Sorry there is nothing I can do to change my accent. I find your comment very petty, what do you want me to do, put on a fake irish accent? I upload poems that resonate with me. Why do you not comment about the poem itself instead of bitching about my accent?

@29harveydinio personally I loved the way you read this. The only thing I'd say is that I wish you'd read it slower so it would have lasted longer.

It's so wonderful to hear a poem being read non pretentiously and honestly, I'd listened to eight different readings of this before I settled on the one I wanted to send to my man. All the others sounded so contrived.

@29harveydinio - also, honesty is what poetry is about. Honesty, heart and truth. Please don't change the way you speak and do readings - personally I love it and will always check your page first if i want to hear a reading from now on.

@egotrippromo Thank you very much for your kind words :). This was one of my first poems uploaded and I agree, it is a little fast. You should check out some of my other poetry videos if you like this, I have ones that I would consider to be of better quality. My accent is something I am very self conscious about, but thanks for the encouraging words.

Thanks for the Sub btw and I hope you will enjoy my future videos. :)
