"Forgetfulness" by Billy Collins (poetry reading)

[Dapperdan2009]

I really enjoyed your reading. So different than hearing Collins read it. But I enjoyed your side of the story as well. I find it interesting that one of the other people who commented remarked that the poem was 'a little disturbing'. Which I find interesting, since someone who knew Collins' work and voice would have been very unlikely to say such a thing.

Why take a pill? I believe Lacuna, Inc. provides that service.

brilliant. the loss of memory is so tied to a loss of identity.

Wonderful reading of this enjoyable (if a little disturbing... what's the author's name again...?) poem. Your commentary is terrific as well. Thankyou!
