My Entrepreneurial Spirit

Aaron Fagan on Video Poetry

[dropcap]V[/dropcap]ideo offers an opportunity to add texture and dimension to a poem, and perhaps a different, hopefully more inviting, way to experience poetry. I’m not looking for any literal relationship, I just like how language, music, and image can correspond with each other like a dialogue.
