Strange thing about poetry, reading it or hearing it... the first time through you get a sense... With a second reading, things that eluded you begin to come clear, crystalize, make more sense.... And so on. (While as a whole, so often, staying just beyond the edge of complete understanding.) - I found my way here after reading a review of FT's first book, in an old 1974 volume of Poetry.
Opinion noted and appreciated. One of the hardest parts of making these videos is finding fitting music. In this case I felt the music enhanced a key build-up in the poem.
This is wonderful. I would love to see more of Dr. Turner!

tip: dont use basic music like this, it completely distracts you away from the beauty of the poem
