Includes unlimited streaming via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.

A collection of recorded poems. Very lo-fi. Some sonic anomalies persist. The first four poems: 'Jewels', 'Audition', '1933' and 'With Joy In Mind' were written in the late 1960's when I was 17 or 18 years old. The rest are from much later - mostly the late 1980's and early 1990's.
