"When I Have Fears that I May Cease to Be," by John Keats (read by Xe Sands)
GOING PUBLIC 3.11.16 - "When I Have Fears that I May Cease to Be," by John Keats Reminds me of Whitman's commentary...that all the fame and renown means exactly nothing without actual substance in your life aside from that superficial layer placed on you (temporarily, usually) by others.

"Choose," by Carl Sandburg (read by Xe Sands)
GOING PUBLIC 12.18.15 - "Choose," by Carl Sandburg Seems to me that this is a timeless and timely instruction, one which I wish didn't need repeating so continually.

"Dreams in Wartime," by Amy Lowell (read by Xe Sands)
GOING PUBLIC 7.3.15 - "Dreams in Wartime," by Amy Lowell I think there is something unfortunately timeless about war poetry...I imagine being able to read poetry from ages past (Ovid, anyone? Oh the flashbacks to college seminar - gah!)and finding the same imagery, themes, laments. As with…

"A.E.F.," by Carl Sandburg (read by Xe Sands)
GOING PUBLIC 6.19.15 - "A.E.F.," by Carl Sandburg So often, a poet will seem to speak to us, so intimately from somewhere way back, and although they couldn't really be talking to us, they are, aren't they. They are. Some themes just keep coming back and back and back. Image credit: Solid, by…
