Dumbfounded (performed by KC VITAs) from Leslee Wood on Vimeo.

Earlier this year, I had the pleasure to hear my poem "Dumbfounded," which appears in Flatlands, set to music by composer Leslee Wood. Leslee is part of the choral group KC VITAs who commissioned this work as part of a performance of pieces centered around the theme of "Home." You can watch the performance, which took place at the Kemper Art Museum in Kansas City.
