The reading of this poem was long over due. I first heard the lovely /u/la_vraie_vie read it and I was completely blown away and had to do a reading of my own. Dylan Thomas is a brilliant poet, love this poem it's very intense and yet beautiful. I've always been at a loss for words when it comes to poems and yet I like to write my own poetry haha. I hope you enjoy this. I acted a little bit if you couldn't tell btw, I was nervous and acting sort of helps me read more steadily.
This audio is a lovely mashup of me and my dear u/veiled_threat reading poetry with a lovely blues music backing track. The poem VT reads () is first, followed by a jazz break, then my poem (). All three pieces of art were inspired by the concept of bruised fruit, and the song can be found under the same name, by St. Paul & The Broken Bones.

You just had one of the worst days at your job. You're ready to come home and bury your head in a pillow to forget the world even exists.
Met at the door by your loving significant other, you're hugged, comforted, and cuddled by them. You ask them to recite a poem, because their passion for poetry makes your heart flutter.
That glimmer in their eye tells you they know the perfect one.
