My poem for Day 7 of the Tuple 30/30 project can be read here, but you can listen to it on this very page.

Huh. I’ll check it out when I can get on an actual computer. Any if the other audio on the site not working?
I haven’t checked any of those I didn’t specifically wanted to use. Busy, busy, busy I’m afraid.
