Why put my Poetry to Music?
I put my poetry to music because I’ve seen what happens to poetry books in the wild. I could spend the time and money to publish one, give it to someone who would accept it happily, admire the cool cover, and place it proudly on the coffee table like a decorative hostage. After a respectable amount of time, guilt from not reading it would migrate it to a distant bookshelf—or worse, a nearby drawer, kept handy just in case I ever showed up again. Eventually, it would be sold at a garage sale for a shiny nickel, never opened, never read.
Or I could turn those poems into lyrics and let them become music—something people actually want to hear—so instead of being a stick in the eye, they get to be music to the ears, immortalized into the lexicon of modern soundscape. Doesn't that sound better?
How to access music?
Accessing music online is simple—at least in theory. Everyone can has YouTube, but if you have Apple Music, Spotify, or the like, just ask it politely to play The Mark Kraver Project and let the magic happen. Fair warning: some streaming services can be a little sneaky (Alexia). They’ll slip in “similar sounding artists” like a musical bait-and-switch, hoping you won’t notice you’ve drifted into someone else’s catalog. That’s why in our house we look to the ceiling and declare with confidence, “Hey Google — play ‘The Mark Kraver Project,’” and it obediently shuffles through the full spread—vocals, instrumentals, the whole sonic buffet—without trying to upsell us into a creative identity crisis.
