Thank you, Craig! The reading is splendid! I will just have to change the file-name at cataloguing time; only lower case letters because upper case messes up the alphabetical order in archive.org , and usually no articles to make filenames shorter.

Welcome to the Poetry Collection Ryan! Thank you for your contributions! I will enter them into the Magic Window!
Your tech specs are OK, just a note on your volume, your first recording is at the upper range of desired volume, the second is at the lower

So what you want to aim at is something inbetween for consistency.
And you might have noticed that every project uses a specific file-name format. Don't worry about these, I am able to change them at cataloguing time. I will rename them to spc194_toathletedyingyoung_rf_128kb.mp3 and spc194_tovirginstomakemuchoftime_rf_128kb.mp3
