Listen "A Poet's Take on Gladiator: Musings from Fort Lauderdale"
Episode Synopsis
Good morning from Fort Lauderdale on this sunny February 14th. While Valentine's Day might not be on the agenda for me, warm wishes go out to all those celebrating today. The local weather is a pleasant 27°C (81°F), perfect for reflecting on recent cinematic experiences.
After viewing both Gladiator films, I found a new wave of inspiration, particularly from the first movie. This creativity took form in a poem titled "Nothing But a Frightful Broken Dream," which delves into themes of treachery, power, and the spectacle of life in ancient Rome, drawing parallels to our own societal constructs.
