Bedtime Stories by Charles Simic As copied down in my Book Two on December 15, 1986 1. The great toy-maker made toy-judges. He wound them up to a screech. Then he made a toy-torturer. He made a toy-executioner. But he forgot to make toy-victims. There was just you and me And we were cold. And I had a bad couch. And you had one leg shorter than the other. 2. All the lost ones gathered To make a forest, Autumn And someone reporting a disappearance For every last one of them Has each twig, leaf, root, Described and then dimly outlined The old woman in crisp funereal silk. 3. When a tree falls in a forest And there’s no one around To hear the sound, the poor owls Have to do all the thinking They think so hard, they fall off Their perches and are eaten by ants. Who, as you know, all look like Little black riding hoods. 4. You’ve got something in your left eye It’s a step-ladder Very tiny. Very interesting. There’s a bucket, too, and a man. In white overalls. He’s got a brush! I make kiss-like noises To scare him off. 5. This must be that famous cottage Where the wolf swallowed grandma. Only now there’s a Chinese laundry on one side And a pool hall on the other. And if it isn’t, how come When they open its narrow door at night The light falls on all fours and crawls off. And behind it the pose of someone laughing, Someone crying herself to sleep?

"Little Black Riding Hoods" or Bedtime Stories is my favorite poem by him

year?

Good man Galway

This must be why Joey's family left Scranton, and now he is a lot worse than this hurricane.

So wonderful to encounter my old teacher Henry so deeply engaged in his life of Poetry! RIP, dear friend...

Bronk is one of the essential English-language poets of the second half of the twentieth century. I urge viewers to make time for these videos and--of course--to read his books.

Oh man…and the wars we rage just kept on going… 😢 ❤🙏🏽☮️🌎

"See coverage of the flood tonight on wgbi-tv's newscene-22 @ 6:00 pm 7:00 pm & 11:00 pm only on wgbi-tv channel 22 cbs scranton pa" 🇺🇸👁️‍🗨️📺🎤🤔🎥.

At 04:49 - THE SMOKEY THE BEAR SUTRA. HAPPY BIRTHDAY, GARY!

I have a reel to reel tape recorded in August 1955 of survivors being interviewed after this hurricane

Such an amazing poet and teacher. This brings back wonderful memories.

In what year was that

So happy to have found this. Gary is still with us at 92! Deep bows.

What a gem of a lecture in poems!

Belle was wonderful. I knew her when I lived in DC.

Someone give him a drink...

Thank you for everything! Here’s a little something for you: ruclips.net/video/Y7ggw365lYI/видео.html

I love this man. Im glad the RUclips algorithms are bringing up his poem recitals.

My dad owned the Lackawanna Bakery which got destroyed in the flood but rebuilt it later on south main st

It's sad this only has 64 views. I just discovered for myself who Dennis Brutus was and this talk was an excellent combination of poetry reading, history lesson and autobiography.

Many of the videos featuring W D Ehrhart have comments disabled. I just wanted to respond to his statement that nothing he did in Vietnam is worthy of praise. I just wanted to tell him that his experiences, his actions were the components which created the person he has become: Wise, empathic, compassionate, and determined. His contributions are measured by his impact on the souls who read his poetry, who are among his audiences, and those he encounters through the course of his life.

My first poetry trip. Glued to the screen. Thank you

What a pleasant guy

Wonderful poet. Thank you for this footage

Ehrhart is the best!

WOW

What year was this?

My Great Uncle was Amazing!!

My grandpa said there 18 wheeler got taken a block and there were cows that drowned

Thank you for this upload - I’ve been revisiting it for years. Everyone should know Etheridge Knight. RIP

wgbi-tv's newscene-22 is everywhere circa november-1955.

He's easily among the greatest poets of his generation or any--and a lion of a man!

The Braun poems he reads are among his best but he's not good at putting over their meaning. You need to see these poems on the page to realize how good some of them are. Look for The Shed in particular.

He's high AF, but he's still cool.

If he was a college graduate they would have given him the Pulitzer Prize.

This is my grandpa

What year is this?

One of Americas all time greatest poets .. . True genius and wordsmith

An amazing poet and an amazing person. This man's words have touched my soul.

I lived through Diane in Massachusetts. We were lucky. Our house was on the top of a knoll a mile from town center. With a clear view from our hill I remember being stunned by the volume of water. About a quarter mile away what once was a three foot wide trickle of a drainage ditch had become a 70 yard wide river raging through heavily populated neighborhoods. It was an awesome sight to behold.

Thank you!
