Only Love (Can Heal the Hole in Your Heart)

Only Love (Can Heal The Hole In Your Heart):  Lyrics of Love, Loss, and Wonder, is Mark Seiden's new Wisdom Audio Book.

Seiden's lyrics explore love and loss, in a variety of vocalization styles but always with an evocative, resonant wisdom. 

LISTEN, HERE, now, to a "spoken word" rap like "It's Over; or, Obsession"; a chant, like "Denial/Trial"; a traditional poem, like "Brightest Days."

As X.J. Kennedy, renowned poet and editor of the perennial college best-seller, An Introduction to Poetry, put it in a letter Seiden about an earlier performance:

"You seem to have hit on a highly original form I'd call chants ... midway between poem to read on the page and songs to sing ... I love what you're doing, whatever name you want to give it."

So, please, LISTEN, HERE, now, for a sense of Seiden's audio performance and writing style. Try starting with the selections mentioned above by clicking them on the playlist.

As Robert Frost wrote in words quoted on the book's back cover and in its preface, "The ear does it.  The ear is the only true writer and the only true reader.... I wouldn't be writing all this if I didn't think it the most important thing I know."

Please LISTEN,HERE, now, to selections from the lyrics of love, loss, and wonder in Only Love (Can Heal The Hole In Your Heart), and then discover all twenty lyrics in this new audio-book!
