Premium Member POETRY IS A RECITED ART
POETRY IS A RECITED ART as folk talk &recite they naturally  pause after one breath.. thus gramatical symbols  are superfluous.. tradition calls for capitals at beginning of lines .. but again spoils    the flow as most will unthinkingly    hesitate ...thereat so also ' lines' as such  are an irrelevance in this open context .,without these things  each person brings a uniqueness  to the poem.. much as  we all do when looking at  a work art  or touching  a tactile sculpture .. a poem  is or should be   similar...

Premium Member Persuasion Recited Prose-A Testimony
PERSUASION By grace I was saved,through faith, not of my self but by a precious gift. This faith came from hearing,hearing the word of God,Jesus,who manifested Himself to me,through the work of the Holy Spirit.I know whom I have believed and am persuaded.When He knocked at my door,I heard His voice.I pushed open the door,He came in. Evermore I remain in Christ,by grace, through faith,a...

Premium Member Now Must Art Recited Structured Prose
NOW MUST ART A now moment,instantaneous, parentage unknown,alive borne of inspiration.Scattered here and there, colours everywhere.The inner made outer.Inherent originality conceived, perceived,crystallised,the beneath now in relief,of line,spot,point and dab upon a canvas,to dry before the eye.Succinct,complete of itself, never to be reproduced it stays unique,of me,for all to see.Of me,was once,this, must art elsewhere,forever did depart. I look upon it now,and wonder how! Listen to me recite and all...

ENCHAINED UNFREE Who has believed the reports,to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed.Who has heard His voice, who stands in the light.The sun rises and shines,and shadows of darkness occur.Who will understand and respond.Who will stay in the shadows,spiritually blind,who will see who remains enslaved,enchained unfree Listen to me recite all my anthology(Christian & otherwise) on youtube...

Premium Member An Eclectic Summers Day Recited Structured Prose
AN ECLECTIC SUMMER’S DAY Nuts arrive on the tree is summer really on the wane? School holidays still to break and buddleia not yet in flower for goodness sake!Runner beans still to bloom,two weeks ago it was still June and Wimbledon passed without a monsoon. Clover now covers the lawn, bird song still greets the dawn. Cricket upon our screens and Summer,middle-aged and in between. Hear me...

Come,look,listen ..taste and see. Stop,pause awhile, close your eyes. Wait! Do you hear the silence, it surrounds you, it envelopes you.

Premium Member What Is the Point Structured Prose Recited
WHAT IS THE POINT What is the point?A comment so often made,a question in some bored moment.A reflection to pass away some dull moments ‘til something other provides a momentary distraction to fill the mind with a temporal train of thought.Soon the question is then forgotten.Life is too short is it not?Yes it is,pick up the ‘obits’ read the news,watch the straplines on the twenty-four...

Premium Member A Living Voice Recited
A LIVING VOICE Symbols of structured prose, an instant insight when read aloud.The prose of poetry purposed, to experience,once and forever then filed in the mind’s eye&ear. When triggered,to be recalled and repeated over again& again. A living voice intoned and inflected echoing as an everlasting ripple acroos momentary eternity,indelibly sketched,a recorded act, of life.

Premium Member An Elegy For England Recited
AN ELEGY FOR ENGLAND Posturing politicians pursuing their pompous persona,oblivious of the obvious,contemptuous of the common man,and common sense that therein abides. Such bella-donnas,a deadly night-shade in their braying bubble poisoned our enfranchisement,those hard won rights we and our forefathers sweated blood, tears & long years to achieve. Without a glance or referendum obliterated on the altar of ego,subsumed to the domination of the bureaucratic oligarchy...

Premium Member Art Ekphrasis 1 Wols and Palmer -Recited
WOLS EKPHRASIS Tachiste,blot and stain,spontaneous of the moment ,like life itself can so often be. Small scale in composition,compulsive unrecognised at the time,yet literal and long lasting,are the memories we see Inspired by Wols ‘Composition’ c 1950 PALMER EKPHRASIS In a Shoreham garden,scent of blossom fills the air,a white blaze of spring to make every heart sing.Impressioniste before its time.A profusion of clouds or blobs,dabs &extravagences per...

Premium Member Art Ekphrasis 2 Suerat and Macke -Recited
SEURAT EKPHRASIS Colour intermingled in the Spectator’s eye.Divisions that juxtapose and complement,I would suppose. A static quality of light captured one Sunday on the island,La Grande Jatte. An ‘as is’ moment dot.. by dot.. this afternoon promenade of activity, frozen forever as a ‘still-life’ shot. Inspired by GeorgesSeurat’s Grand Jatte. MACKE EKPHRASIS So graceful,so elongated,anonymous, faceless impressionist in form.A panorama on first sight and yet..there but perhaps not!...
