  • Paramahansa Yogananda - Scientific Healing Affirmations
    Affirmation by Power of Thought

    I think my life to flow,
    I know my life to flow,
    From brain to all my body to flow.
    Streaks of light do shoot
    Through my tissue root.
    The flood of life in vertebrae
    Doth rush through spine in froth and spray;
    The little cells all are drinking;
    Their tiny mouths all are shining;
    The little cells all are drinking;
    Their tiny mouths all are shining.

    Thanks to Steve from the tunnel by the library.

  • Ted Kooser - They Had Torn Off My Face at the Office
    I managed to tear down an old folder off my bookshelf to see what would fall out. An old printout of this Ted Kooser poem was the 1st thing I found. So I read it to you, wished you well, and went about my business.

    Also, no matter what:
    “Considering the ways in which so many of us waste our time, what would be wrong with a world in which everybody were writing poems?" -Ted Kooser

  • Anne Boyer - AT LEAST TWO TYPES OF PEOPLE
    Can you head out into the world without issue? Can you think about your past and be all "ehhh, it was ok, no big deal." Can you attend a party and enjoy it? Can you just eat regular, healthy meals & head to the gym after work and not overthink the whole thing? Well good for you!

    Please listen to another reading of Anne Boyer from her astounding book "Garments Against Women" which can be purchased through the link below. I can not explain how much I revere this book. If I could give it every single award there is, I would do exactly that.

    I love you guys,
    Robyn

  • Kenneth Fearing - Invitation
    Today, while I watch a man in a Members Only jacket urinate on the wall behind my home, I read you a poem about how the wondrous clashing of emotion and time are exactly what make up a life. This isn't bad, this isn't good, it just is. And I guess in its is-ness, it's actually pretty damn splendid.

    I also talk to you about an experience I had with two bodybuilding brothers while living in Chicago. Now that one is sad. Unequivocally.

    We will go through endless streets,

  • Dylan Thomas - Do not go gentle into that good night
    Before I started dicing a bunch of Thanksgiving vegetables, I took my laptop outside to talk to you. But I'm naturally very loud and it's early, so I'm more like whispering to you. I sound pretty creepy. Sorry about that.

    And less than a week ago, I stated clearly I would never have a guest on this podcast. Today, I broke that rule with a surprise guest. Listen to hear who I let in!

    With love, Robyn
