I could picture myself running into a deaf person myself, and doing the same as she described. I can also see in her word choice, that the spark is there, the wanting to live is there, and it shows, in her words too, not just her voice.
Art is in print too. She sounds great in voice too. There is something to be said for print too. I know there are books I have read, that painted pictures in my brain. I think Rhonda is great at both voice and print.
I will say this myself. Many people like some of my poems, some of them are junk. But Rhonda can do both. I'm more of the type that if to be read, I'd rather hear someone else read my stuff aloud. Rhonda is a double threat because she is a far better reader than I am. AND she also writes stories and poetry, whereas I only write poetry.
I loved it, and I do envy her talent.
Oh, that's not me reading. That's my mother. Let me see some of your stuff. We're accepting submissions for the spring issue of our Spoken Word poetry journal. Your poems will be read by a Chicago television and radio personality on my staff. It doesn't have to rhyme.

I have 900 plus written over 30 years. In the thread link below. The website isn't 30 years old, just my history of writing poems. It is the website in my sig.
CRAP, put me on the spot why don't you?
"The Illusion" here is the link.

I would be honored for your staff to read any of those. Just credit them to to Brian James Rational Poet (AKA, Brian37 of Rational Responders).
I am flattered. I read your work, like today and I think you are just WOW, so to be read on the same website would be an honor.
