Design by Billy Collins
A new Billy Collins vidpo that isn’t an animation! The use of Cat’s Cradle imagery was an inspired match for the text, I thought. Hilla Katki is the filmmaker.

I have never heard this poem. I really love Billy Collins. Although, in the case of this particular video, I am left wishing that they either did their motions more slowly, or put the text of the poem up to read, as it went along, because I realized after watching the video that I had been so intent on watching the video that I couldn’t recall much of the poem.
Time for another listen. haha

Well, if it makes you listen twice, that can’t be a bad thing! I’m not sure I’d like it as much if the text were present on the screen.
