An expressive reading of Broken Wing by writtenbywill

Here I breakdown Terrance Haye's poem, "American Sonnet for My Past and Future Assassin ["I lock you in an American sonnet that is part prison"], between both figurative and visual language.

This recording is a linguistic breakdown of the poem by Clint Smith in his book Counting Descent. It goes over how the poem is built, the formations it has, along with the diction and effects it has to both the reader and the poem itself.
