Tease

So I’ve recorded some of my poems

And I don’t think they’re half bad

Who knew that in speaking

There’s so much fun to be had

But now I’m in a conundrum

As I need to make a choice

Do I stay safely anonymous

Or finally reveal my voice?

      1. Hah….listen to this….I have built up in my mind an image of you…..do I want to hear your voice and have that image come crashing down? But hang on Don it could enhance that image….Do I want to stay in my world of fantasy or come into the world of reality?……Thinking about this it’s a common situation we all face – the choice of real or fantasy worlds….end of rant

        1. Haha! You’re quite right Don! 😁

          I’m intrigued to see what your minds image of me may be though… Would be interesting to see how far off – or close to – the mark it is 😁😉🖤

  15. every writer faces that dilemma somewhere along the line — it depends how bad you want publication; I would choose publication all the time: your poems are very good and the quality is consistent !

    1. Well that’s very kind, thank you.

      To be honest I’m still amazed anyone reads my ramblings, let alone think anyone would want to listen to them! 😬

      I don’t know if it’s vanity, boredom or just looking for a new challenge (it’s most likely all three! 😁) but I have been having fun recording…
      👍🖤

      1. People come to your blog for you, and audio is just another expression of yourself. Sharing more of yourself is only a bold and admirable thing in my opinion. And you’re in total control! You may try it and stop it, or do it only occasionally, so can always go back to the mystique if you choose to :).

        And if you’ve been having fun doing it that’s all the justification for doing it :D. But any extra way of expressing yourself is always therapeutic, and since voice is so expressive and so ‘you’, it’s highly therapeutic in my experience.

  16. Do whatever you’re comfortable with ❤ I know it's often very jarring hearing your own voice played back to yourself, but we're behind you whether you choose to publish or not 😀

    This was an idea I wanted to do, too, record some on soundcloud, then put a link to it under the poem, I think it’s a really cool idea and don’t see anybody else doing it 😲.

    1. Aw that’s so kind, thank you! 😁

      I’ve recorded quite a few now but I’m still not sure if I’ll release them.

      I’ve also loaded a couple of books into KDP as well and, again, not sure I’ll ever have the courage to publish those either.

      Damn insecurity 🤔😕

      Still, great to hear from you my friend and I hope you’re well!
      😁👍🖤
