I know that this is drifting off the main focus of what Ant Gert's Ramblings are usually about, but I feel that this video-poem speaks to how I feel in my heart about many of these issues we've brought up so far, as well as many we haven't gotten to yet.
For years I've written poetry on and off. It's a truly therapeutic way to vent frustration with the way things are. Since "things" are totally jacked up beyond any acceptable level, I've accrued quite a stack of poetry. Until now I haven't really had an outlet for my poems. They've just been sitting on a shelf, and I rarely even let anyone read them, but thanks to the kids over at Olson, the video-poem ideas are now
a-brewin'.
This video was created using nothing but an iphone. The voice, as well as the guitar in the background was recorded using the voice memo feature. The video was shot using the phone's camera, but as far as which app was used, that will remain a mystery until I get the feeling that people give a crap. So, as one could imagine, it was a little challenging to make, but the fun I had creating it more than made up for it.
Please, enjoy.
Paying attention to every crackpot conspiracy theory that comes down the pike may not be possible, but we can sure as hell try. You don't have to believe everything you read, but you don't have to be a dick about it either. Blog in peace.
