This is original prose by me. In case you missed it the first time, it's called "Oz."
I think I'm going to take this idea and run with it. We'll see how it goes.

  • Speaking of slam poetry on Twitter, I realized I had not watched this yet (hence why I didn't comment until now). I loved the box metaphor. How true is it? It gave me the image of a coffin.

    As someone working to improve her own poetry, I wonder if I should record a few of my new works. It seems fun. :)

  • Short answer: Yes, you should.

    I'd listen. And critique, if you let me. I love talking about art, in case you can't tell by now.

  • Trevor, you're made of awesome. It's clear.

    Trevor, you're so clever, I grin from ear to ear.

    Trevor is a poet and not many people know it.

    But Trevor is so jokes and this is how he shows it!

    Lol that comment turned into a little poem. :)

  • You're a John Keats in the making. Hopefully, minus the "dying at 25" part.

see all

  • Leslie and I discussed this same topic last night.

    Geology is an ironic subject. Because it does NOT rock.

    Two drums and a cymbal fall off a cliff. You know the rest.

    ~Trevor

  • Geology Rocks!

  • Not really. I just started writing again this year... I had been on a prolonged hiatus since about 10th grade. I wrote a few little things for my high school's magazine, but nothing that I put much effort into.

    I'm planning on recording again tonight. I don't exactly know the total amount of readings I'll do, but I can guarantee there will be at least five.

    DFTBA!

    ~Trevor

  • Wow.

    Really nice. A really solid message and completely took me there. Have had moments of this nature. it has such a deep meaning in so few words. really great. The part 1 signifies that there will be others which is good to hear. Have you been writing poetry long?

    -Mary Kate

  • I'm glad you got something out of this.

    And, yes. There will be more.  I have at least 5 slated for recording.

  • I meant to have to have it a little darker, but the halogen light that I have is as bright as the sun. I'm going to work on that in the next video. Camera angles, different area, lighting, all of it... this is going to be an experiment in A) poetry reading and B) camera work.
