Hello everyone! I have an update for you guys about our project. As of right now we are still waiting on a response from the manager of the Hayner Public Library. Once we hear back from her we will hopefully have a place were we can host our event. So as we wait I was thinking that I could start informing you guys about the kind of poetry we are doing, which is spoken word poetry. Spoken word poetry is a word based performance that reflects on word play. Something to know about spoken word poetry is that it doesn't have to rhyme. Also spoken word poetry is easier to write when it is something that you are very passionate about.. I know it sounds pretty difficult at first but here are some famous spoken word poets, in case you want to look up their work. One famous spoken word poet is Sarah Kay. She is the founder of Project V.O.I.C..E, which uses spoken word poetry for inspirational and education purposes. Another famous spoken word artist is Hollie Mcnish. she has won the Ted Hughes Award for New York in Poetry. I'm gonna have two links below that are some spoken words that these two artist have written. I hope you guys enjoy!
