    <description>Welcome to The Poet Delayed Podcast!
This podcast is a space for real, honest, and meaningful conversation. I explore poetry, literature, healing, relationships, and the deep importance of connection—not just with others, but also with ourselves. While we talk about the beauty and significance of relationships, we also dive into the vital act of staying true to who we are. It’s easy to lose ourselves in the world and in the connections we cherish, but this space is a reminder that being in relationship with others should never mean abandoning ourselves.
Whether I’m sharing my own journey or talking with guests, my goal is to create a space where stories and experiences bring us closer together. I believe that through sharing, we find understanding, and through connection, we find a sense of belonging.
"May I be I is the only prayer - not may I be great or good or beautiful or wise or strong." - E.E. Cummings

  <description>In this episode, I read my poem, “Emperor Concerto, II” and I’m joined by Ric de Azevedo as we discuss the power of music.
“EMPEROR CONCERTO” II
The strings prepare me
Like a good opening act,
For the moment the piano comes in
Like a ballerina on point
Delicately entering the stage.
I’m speechless every time.
In awe (reverent almost)
As my body absorbs the sound waves
Harnessed two centuries ago by a deaf man
Who arranged them into beauty
Then converted them to ink and
Stained them on paper.
And now I sit, transfixed,
As a modern-day acoustic alchemist
Transmutes the ink back into waves
And floods me with euphoria.
[Beethoven's Piano Concerto No. 5 in E-Flat Major, OP. 73 "Emperor," II. Adagio un poco moto (mosso)]
