    I Am Bad at Poetry

    Play Episode Listen Later Jul 11, 2021 14:53


    You may have noticed there was no episode last weekend. Was it because it was Independence Day? Was it because I forgot? Or am I trying to buy myself time because I don't have anything else recorded? Who's to say?Whatever the reason, feast your ears on some poetry, both proper poets' poetry, read badly by me, and some other poetry, written badly by me. It had been many years since I read said bad poetry and I forgot just how terrible it is. I hope it entertains you as much as it did me.InstagramTwitterWebsiteSupport the show (https://www.buymeacoffee.com/idontimagine)
