New Poetry Reading – Philosophy 101
New poetry reading is up on YouTube and available for everyone to see, hear, and enjoy! The first poem in this series is called Philosophy 101 and will have two versions; one with text and one without.
Below is the link to the very first poem which does include text. It will also be found in the playlist called Mary Lou Healy 2021.
Then Vs. Now
It’s easier to write now, so much so that everyone can call themselves a writer.
You don’t need to be published or write good works. All you need is a computer,
an email account, and a blog. Instantaneously famous!
My grandmother had an old fashioned typewriter, the kind that jammed a lot.
If you didn’t know where the keys were, you had to start over. There was no such
thing as a back space key. No home key, no delete, and if you took the paper out,
there was no way to put it back and line everything up properly.
You literally had to start over.
You couldn’t hit Control Z to go back or Control C & V to copy and paste. You had
to type your project over and over again if you made one tiny mistake. Or if you
had to say something in one article more than once, you had to type it as many
times as it needed to be read…
February is Coming
Good morning!
New poetry reading videos are coming out for February. There is one left over from January that will sneak into the new month but theremaining poems read for February will be under the theme of Beliefs and Thoughts. These are philosophical and yet still fun. Please feel free to check them out over on YouTube. I will attempt to post when new videos come out but in general, they are posted a couple of times a week. The first version of a poem is with text and the second version is without. In this way you can watch/listen to whichever you like the best. The words on the screen help when it’s not quite understood how the poem flows in the written word. The video without allows you to enjoy the words being spoken and see the video pictures without words scrolling.
Once the first video comes out, I will post the link to the playlist. That said, if you want to check out the past videos for themes of Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and the New Year, go to YouTube and search for Phenix Jira. There you will find two accounts (the other is for gaming) and you can view the many poetry videos.
Speaking of gaming, there are many videos to view of Yahtzee with Buddies with new ones to emerge soon. I have a couple of videos on Rumble as well however that is a new account and I am primarily on YouTube at this time.
Thanks everyone!

Dice World Yahtzee w/Buddies Furry Frights w/Phenix JiRa
Love October and Halloween themed games?? Check out the play list for the Halloween themed season on Yahtzee with Buddies (Dice World). It was a lot of fun playing and should prove as good background video play while you eat your lunch or dust cobwebs around the TV. 😉
I'm not kidding here... there were a few funny spots including a neighbor mowing right outside the window as I played and at least once where I apparently forgot how to play. Yahtzee, All Right!!
