AB - "Whispering" is a "video poem [that] delivers lines of poetry in a sequence that emphasizes lines and words through kinetic language and precise timing to unnerve the reader. From the outset, it begins to set its creepy tone through as short looping soundtrack that provides a metronomic quality to the poem, which unfolds line by line drawing attention to certain words by flashing snippets of almost recognizable images and words. Its visual design uses oranges and reds to contrast with a blue window-like rectangle that changes position slightly over the course of the poem. The train-like sound reinforces a sense that the reader is on rails, leading to an inevitable, chilling conclusion as the poem's imagery unfolds and the reader realizes where this is leading its readers." -- From <em>I Love E-Poetry</em>
