this is great. you should make a thread about the topic of 'slam poetry' in general. It's a wonderful flowing art-form. :)

YouTube video on a poem is like sitting on a warm bench with having beautiful sunshine over your head, and reading Shakespearean sonnets. When we act in front of the video, we must remember that Twelfth Night proved wrong about literature point of view of philosophical of poetic stanzas. limajean, go read more Poe's short stories.

well, In African tradition, poetry is spoken and NOT written, just as music is played and not written. Open up your mind a little bit.

Greek tradition to, and ironically, Shakespeare as well. In truth, this dominance of the textualized poetry is a 18th century creation really.

it's okay to disagree people, chill.
it does suck.

Oh, I didn't deny it, except ripping on the form is not the problem - ripping on the boring 5 minutes of meaningless noise, and then the boring monotone is - but then again, it isn't my thing, so I guess I'll reserve commenting in depth.

Seems pointless to me.
If we were to discuss slam-poetry we would have to write it out anyway.
Pointless how? what she was doing or that i posted this?
she was reading from a book she wrote, she couldn't exactly pass it around for people to read if they're making a video on her, right?

. . . so stay out of it, thanks.
I will earn a Ph.D in philosophical literature in future. I also helped Mensa members on their literature studies. Shakespeare indeed will be thus proud of me. :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana:

Recently I've been really getting into Mineshaft. Her flow is kind of unreal.
