Poetry Treasures 5: Small Pleasures Anthology Publishing DL Mullan's Original Works

Celebrate Poetry Month 

Poetry Treasures is a poetry anthology series by Robbie Cheadle (aka Roberta Eaton Cheadle) on Kaye Lynne Booth's Writing to be Read blogsite.

After realizing that I wrote poetry, Ms. Cheadle invited me into her select group: Treasuring Poetry, 2024: Introducing the poetry of DL Mullan and a review. With the culmination of a year's worth of poets, the fifth installment of her poetry anthology is set for publication this month.

Yours truly will be the first poet, since I was Ms. January 2024. Six of my poems will be available for perusal: Daybreak, Home, Myth, Quantum Time, Galactic Ride, and Slap-Happy Contagion. Each one brings a different perspective to the theme: Small Pleasures.

About the Poet

 

DL Mullan is much more than a lyrical and literary poet. Her elementary school taught Japanese theater and poetry, foreign languages, writing, cooking, drama, as well as drawing skills. Secondary education was an Arts Magnet High school, introducing her to the technical side of art through theater and concert choir. Everything a budding artist would need until community college filled her with a love for poetry. As a poet, she won academic awards and writing credits. Director of her own community poetry group, she presented, taught the love of poetry, as well as created her own poetic forms. During 2020, participants from around the world, including Europe and Asia, flocked to Undawnted to learn poetry from Ms. Mullan. Experience poetry in genres and styles that aren’t taught in the traditional English textbooks, but should be.

Literary Masters Videos Inspires Creepy Hollywood Addiction to Necrotomes

Last year, Undawnted's DL Mullan embarked on experimenting with Artificial Intelligence (AI) software to bring literature to life. She brought forth Edgar Allan Poe, Bram Stoker, Emily Dickinson, and Alexander Dumas to read their own works as part of her Literary Master's YouTube series. She wanted to inspire people to read their creative, literary writings.

This year, Hollywood decided to use her idea to exhume dead celebrities for audiobooks. These corporate film giants rather disinter than hire actual living human voice actors. Is the unalive population the new definition of cheap, slave labor? 

What? Is the open southern border not good enough? Now, we are desperately seeking necroentertainment?

With the economy in shambles, the creative community, including actors and voice actors, need the wage from a good paying job. Don't look to the people who feed you propaganda. They are looking somewhere else for their meal ticket:

“An estate will get a considerable amount of money from licensing and agreements,” Gunkel added...

It appears that corporations are less involved in the labor market and more concerned with cutting corners. A licensing agreement can lead to the disavowing voice actors. Unless you are a big name celebrity and/or dead, Hollywood has no use for you:

“We don’t know yet the supposed market for these types of things but you can already see with audiobooks that ones read by recognizable voices and celebrities are a hot commodity,” Gunkel said. “If there’s a way to have a celebrity do all kinds of content and not voice it themselves, that could open up the market even wider.”  

What a horror show.  

Here is an idea. Remove identity, social justice, and other politics from the entertainment created for the public. Revenues are down, and ticket sales are at an all-time low, because corporations want to tell the average person what to think, how to vote, when to feel, where to riot, and who to blame.

How's that going for you guys? 

Oh, wait... you're digging up the dead in order to salvage what is left of your dynasties. 

The AI revolution is becoming the go-to arena to replace human interaction and employment. Kiosks, voice overs... when will the madness end? Or is that the reason corporate governance has been pushing work from home and basic income checks? 

They just don't need or care about you anymore. 

The reality is: they never did.
