D.K. Mckenzie, Warwick poet, musician, and creator of The Poe Underground, explores the possibilities of combining the voice of the guitar with the haunting words and expressions of poetry. In this episode, hear the poems Encounter by Polly Chase and Luscious Beach by D.K. Mckenzie accompanied by improvised classical guitar. Encounter You move alone the avenue like one Alone, exultant, among mountain snows; And through your hair the wind of morning blows; And in your eyes is quenched the flaming sun. I did not run the race that you have run; I do not care what pride your triumph knows. You would not understand the dreams of those From whom the thirst for victory is gone. The surging crowds efface you, as the tide Obliterates a footprint on a shore. So sands are sucked by time! You are no more Than the blurred trace of emptiness defied. When you have passed, cool spaces cover me Like the unchallenged waters of the sea. Luscious Beach Luscious beach with the naked moon breaking through the blue Seagulls walk and run remind me of myself (somehow) Maybe it's (all) the wandering and exploring they do Everyone's looking for something Some often, some seldom, some all the time That's me I think I'll drive off into the sunset now like a free bird?
