I Have a Rendezvous with Death

By: Alan Seeger

Narrated by: K. Anderson Yancy

The poem, "I Have a Rendezvous with Death", expresses some of the heart wrenching universal truths and conflicting emotions anyone who goes to war must face: that you'd rather be home than at war and that death is there with you at all times, either waiting for you to die or waiting for you to kill.

This poem was written in WWI…,

I dislike this person’s performance of one of the most poignant works of art ever written.Placing it in Vietnam was distracting and confusing. I just wanted to hear the poem again, but helicopter and jet sound effects were to loud and the performance sucked.

Yes. K. Anderson Yancy brings prose to life. The intonations and inflections of his deep and distinctive voice move with the words and so do your interest in what lies ahead for the protagonist. You can hear the magnitude of the task ahead and the resolve to move forward. Well
