"Today, I'm finding problems in areas where I didn't have areas before."

This hits and hurts and hums
Wish a mood

The reader's tiniest of stammers was sincerely breathtaking. I have a tiny stammer, too.
lonely-as-the-slow-charge-into-a-bayonet is one hell of an adjective
"It just seems such a severe sort of miraculousness."
Some day this will all have been worth it.
... I love it♡
Such a perfect ending!-Paige
His voice lends a softness to this piece that makes it so much better.
My favourite one yet.
My worlds colliding. Gives me so much joy to find two people I absolutely adore in one video. This is such a blessing.
Been waiting for this since the trailer dropped. Love Heems
I loved this, I'm 3 years sober after a 20 years binge. Also, "Sailing to Byzantium" by Yeats might be a good poem for the channel :)
"Today I'm finding problems in areas where I didn't have areas before" is basically the slogan for aging.
That stuff about thirst really got to me
Heems is one of my favourite lyricists. I'm so glad he got to be on this channel!
This poem is raw beautiful
Im glad my mans is still on this rock
oh indeed
I love this man so much
Amazing.. His voice and enunciation are so perfect
Wow, that is my favorite poem yet on this TH-cam channel
Absolutely beautiful, one of my very favorite readings yet.
This is a great piece. Thank you.
Earliest I've ever been.
His voice is giving me a throwback to my Das Racist obsession days #combinationpizzahutandtacobell
Now that’s some melon farming poetry!
