A Cat and a Cock

One of the gifts I got for Christmas was a collection of Aesop’s fables. I’m very fond of the Everyman’s books. I love the bindings, and I love their selections of books. I’d love to have the entire Everyman’s library some day.

Anyways, the plan is to record all of Aesop’s Fables, and here’s the first one. I’m considering maybe moving my podcasts to a separate website, since I’m hoping to do a lot of them this year. But, for now, I’ll put it here.

A Cat and a Cock, and A Wolf and a Lamb, two fables by Aesop.

Green

I haven’t recorded anything in a long time – primarily because Habari doesn’t support podcasting particularly well yet. But this evening I recorded a reading of Green, a poem I wrote a few days ago, which I’m actually very fond of.

I’ve often found the question “What’s your favorite {food, color, animal, song}?” to be annoying, because it is very specifically the variety of life that fascinates me, and picking one thing from any category seems almost a tragedy. This poem is a bit of reflection on the my refusal to have a favorite color, and almost-but-not-quite answers the question.

Here it is. Hope you enjoy it.
