Harry Baker.
It's just fun to say his name.
It's even more to say it in a British accent.
It's the best to hear him say "Harry Baker".

He talks about accepting a part of our Self: the powerful part that says we are unique, boxless, and we all have something important to do.
"If I didn't write my poems no one else would."
Harry Baker is engaging, witty, and a brilliant and contemporary poet. He is creative and inspirational, honest and sensitive.
