Rupert's voice IS forceful. I just wish I could say the same about the
poem. it read to me as mundane prose. no offense. the urban quaintness
bit has been done before, and the language offers me nothing. not to
mention the ungraceful Richard III quote. this is just me of course.
and as a narrative it does sprawl interestingly, in strange sync with
the video. the video is artistic & spastically engaging.
