Recorded this three weeks ago, finally posting it. This is the audio recording of the next five poems from my book, desiring to touch sky. (The book is available here as a free PDF.)

Also, in recent months, I have not consistently followed my passion, which is to record MP3 files of my voice and give them away to people.

In order to start 2009 on the right foot, I want to podcast my way through my poetry book. I’m going to adopt the quick-and-dirty recording style used so effectively by author Cory Doctorow of the craphound.com podcast. So, without further ado, here are the first five poems from desiring to touch sky.
