hey Patti Smith, William Blake & all poetry fans. I signed up this week and posted a poem (audio attached). I'd appreciate it you'd have a read or listen and let me know what you think or if you'd be willing to share any of your experiences on this platform.

Hi Patti, I wrote this with my band after Blake. It is our version of the Sick Rose. I hope you love. I remember the feeling I had singing this back in 2008 when the song first came out....that it would resonate with you. Love Julie https://soundcloud.com/julie-montan/oh-roseyour-animal

I love this, I'm not a huge fan of Blake so just listened to it.

❤️ Love it Patti. Will you do a song for Robert Browning at some point too? I adore the macabre in him. Love Blake too, great song, great poet, and so are you. Well done. ❤️🙋🏻‍♀️
