I'm a visual learner, appreciating the look of words, their placement on paper. I saw a lot, but when I read this aloud in the silence of evening, it became . . . mellifluous music. Thank you!
Oh yes, Ted is fabulous, a former US poet laureate. And yes, as a musician you know that what you see on paper must be brought to life with the instrument—in this case, your voice! Poetry is meant to fill the air!
