The Poetry of a Time Traveller

Most people of today don't enjoy, or have any interest in, English poetry. Who can blame them? We have youtube for expression now.
Five years ago as well as further back I wrote some things from a very fantastic (fantasy-quality, not praise) perspective.
It was really mentally exhausting to express a lot of those things for reasons I can't explain here because of time and language.
Anyhow, since I can perceive that the lot of my potential audience would normally not care to bother interpreting poetry (which can be really hard some times even of musical lyrics) I have also previously made recordings of myself reading the few I felt I could best vocalize.
here they are in alphabetical order, and summarized. i am not including a couple recordings that are present there because they don't have any external relevance.

here i start off by citing metaphors found in stories i have written, and then go on to express some things about "mother nature" to put it blandly.

i wrote this during a bout of sleep deprivation in which i lost my "hearing". it forced me to interpret things differently.

this is actually a chorus, of "mariners", and another character i write about who is a King who cannot coexist in the world his Queen must live. there's even a reference to free will.

this is about manifestations of people trying to take care of this planet. i also use metaphors about the planet, but am not actually discussing the planet itself.

this was about a loop in time that free will was trying to break.

http://trescoronasigna.livejournal.com/2419.html?nc=3 is provided because not all of the words are in English. there are explanations in the comments for some of the picture it's trying to draw.

and this is a poem that is not part of the 305 project at all, it's me trying to get drunk when i was 21 at a real restaurant/bar here in Tucson and having a vivid flashback. my "brother" and I were riding a bus from Sacramento to Seattle. there are even real photographs of it somewhere. my being named Katrina is just a coincidence, and I wrote it before the hurricane that destroyed so much of New Orleans.

well, there you have it. time to breakfast.
