i really like jeffrey mcdaniel

he has four books of poetry, i believe. no, i have not read all of them.. or even one of them completely. so yes, i need to get my life together. haha. BUT, i have heard read/several of his poems and they're soo... great. i really admire the humor present in his work, work that also holds a lot of gravity. it's heavy, but i'll take it. and i also like the way he reads his poems. but i don't want to talk too much, just really wanna post the last couple of videos i watched.

#3 hilarious, so i guess this girl really wanted to record him but without consequence. so, she focused the camera on her scarf... the words are all that matter anyway. and sometimes, you gotta do what you gotta do.

Also, we had to bring in a poem we admire (as well as one of our own) to my free non credit writing (poetry) class today. I brought Jeffrey McDaniel's "Archipelago of Kisses." I could have brought in a lot of different things, but i guess i was just really feeling him today. And, it's also just beautiful. Click me & Check it out!
