Though I do not consider myself a poet, I have been told that I am okay. [I hate to truly highlight myself] I studied a lot of poetry in college for I was an English major and the tips offered here for reading poetry are so true. I found my writing voice in poetry studying a lot of Langston Hughes and Nikki Giovanni. Great poetry to read out loud and perform too! Great blog! Thank you for your podcast.

I don’t know if we “need” that, but it certainly can be done, and for good reasons.

Nice blog!

I don't know if we need to draw a line between poetry and music, but I believe that in pieces where poetry and music is mixed that sometimes the music becomes more important to the listener. It's a problem that is very familiar to a lot of commercial hip-hop -- you take away the music and the lyrics are absolutely ludicrous (pun intended). Truthfully I'm not that familiar with "Dulce et Decorum Est", but I'm going to check it out after I post this. *Joey, thanks for the comment and thanks for blogging about poetry! *Julian, it is indeed a question of taste.

It's a question of taste but I think we have to begin to draw a line between poetry and music. Once again thanks for such an interesting podcast, I also find Dulce et Decorum Est a very moving piece. Furthermore it is FANTASTIC to find poetry on a poetry podcast that is not contemporary. Very interesting podcast, personally I much prefer Don’s style of reading poetry to the Slam Idol style.
