The talented Ronaldo Antonio Dent Stainforth, better known as
R.A.D. Stainforth, of Manchester, U.K., has been kind enough to audio record my poems, and post them to YouTube. I send him the weekly text, and his velvety-voiced interpretation is flawlessly spot on every time. He recently suggested the exciting notion of making video clips of my poetry, taking my words to a new dramatic level. Stay tuned for various and sundry poetical venues, dear readers. Thank you, R.A.D.
Cull
I
sunburn
under
your
late-summer
eyes,
our
tongues hinge,
then
come apart
like
two rakes,
side
by side.
We
cull essence,
swallow
brine
with
the tang
of
Russian vodka
in
your mouth,
the
silvery-cold taste
of
well water in mine.
