a peak of romantic poetry

It's about someone who lost a loved one

Genius

Nice sound

A fantastic, beautiful poem.

Illuminating

This seems very profound but unfortunately I never understood the meaning😅

Lovely.

moving and wonderful. A whispered sense of Donne and Rimbaud? Very much enjoyed "like a bee upon a stem" and And I’m staying still Dictating all the motions of my will.

Oh this is just amazing and so beautiful. xx

Superb 😊

New poem, new look! I like either much

Amazing poem, mate! New book coming?

I was searching for love, In the place a wiseman said was the land of death; Then I felt myself evolve In the exhalation of my purest breath; Now I’m moving on, For the world could do with a touch of my mother’s son. I went down to the crossroads, I got down on my frail bended knee, And I saw how the world, Was exactly as it was supposed to be; Now I’m heading south, While a northern breath still whispers in my mouth. I threw myself to devils, I fought them off without a single blow, For the lord of all the angels Is dwelling in my immortal soul; And I’m staying still Dictating all the motions of my will. I am searching for no one, I am burning in the pits of the biggest fire, Colder than a maggot, And crueler than the wind of dark desire, Like a bee on a stem, On the heart of all time’s oblivion, I am living forever, As I find the way into my father’s home, Where I’ll weave a pale garment And dance my hair through a golden comb; I spy a boat on the sea, And another leaf falling from the dying tree.

Simply beyond

Excellent-and a translation I havent heard before. Great content.

Dear Arthur, which of Chatterton‘s poems you like best?

Terrific diction ... and that timbre of voice? Bra--vo. (I just heard Branagh recite this poem. Word lovers are you all.)

so long is beautiful

Beautifully read.

I'm using this as practice for a monologue and I just wanted to let you know that your work is amazing

This is extraordinary! The lines, the recital, the video! Magnificent, dear Arthur

My favourite poem since childhood. Beautifully spoken, thank you.

That’s so intense!

Folks, try to read Bruno Tolentino (the greatest Brazilian poet ever who also wrote many poems in English, French, Italian and Spanish - he lived for 30 years in Europe, mostly UK as far as I know). Bruno was in the prison of Dartmoor (England I think) for nearly 02 years and he also wrote his "A Balada do Cárcere " inspired by this poem by Wilde and his befriending of a convict who also had strangled his lover... Many references to Wilde, as well as Shakespeare and Greek mythology. His book is just as equally glorious, believe me!

Oh My God, Arthur, it's even more powerful here full screen on my desktop...I feel every single word, piercing me for I care about my dear friend.

Alone again, aimlessly wandering the street, A memory of my dog accompanies my grief, A tune of eden chimes for me, but I am in still school, Not quite in, not even out, lonesome as a leaf Floating on a motorway where it does not belong. But I am going here, in my new walking boots, The cold air kisses me, as I greet the blessed day; I want to be a kinder man, with everyone involved, As I steer my absent will toward my favourite café, To drink a cup of coffee, to work out right and wrong. I smile with the sun, but I feel a taste of woe, For I go uninvited, and the friends I tried to make Are friendly with the others, while I remain alone, A leopard on a mountain path, a woodthrush by a lake, A troubadour without a single listener for his song. Beneath the tree I ceased, and I didn’t need to speak, I didn’t need to eat, and I didn’t need to think, And I didn’t need to be beloved; but there I was relieved, At the final resting place, where glory was my drink, And every passing second was so very long.

This poem is so good. the way it's read is like my so dreamful youth reading Rambo. It's so much an internal paper boat than external. Rambo says it all in saison Enfer , "Nobody really loves anyone. Watch out." That's how my wave in 24 goes. How is your wave in 24? Feel! Lonely ears want to listen... at least one❤

amazing ! you say it soo beautifully and slowly you have a good voice

amazing ! you say it soo beautifully and slowly you have a good voice

Eloquent reading by Arthur L Wood of Auden's September 1,1939. Is history about to repeat itself , I wonder, as politicians, world leaders and religious authorities shout "The windiest militant trash." (Auden, September 1,1939.

Came from Loreena Mckennith song. Really beautiful

Thanks for this. This was a great reading.

Truly moving work

Incandescent genius

Bravo Bravo Bravo I love your rendition!!!! You did so well; it's astonishing, given all the distractions! Nevertheless, you stayed in character, start to finish!

Fabulous
