The Screening Room

everything you can watch.

readings and poems, in my own voice, made into little films. the same words, but moving.

the films

three, so far.

soul force

6:36 silence is where you create worlds.

the first one, and the longest. her voice, and the words on screen, read the whole way through.

your eyes

2:40 a poem from her notebook, january 30, 2009.

read in her own voice, stanza by stanza, over light that moves. sunlight through leaves, then water at dusk, then a curtain breathing at a window. it ends on the poem's own wink.

i want to give

2:01 a prayer poem from her notebook, 2014.

it opens and closes on the real page, in her handwriting. between them, a garden at dawn, a candle, a field of seeds under starlight.

from the notebooks of jane kim yu.

more will come, slowly. they are made one at a time, and each one starts as a poem that was already written years ago. they live on youtube, and they will always be free.
take what you need you start with where you are. it's always the right place for us all.
