Spoken Word
This first video is called "A Blues for Nina", which made its first appearance in the movie Love Jones. This poem was powerful, sexy and deep, written by poet Regie Gibson, whom I have had the pleasure of meeting and watching perform several times at "Da Poetry Lounge" in Hollywood. This very scene in the movie is what intrigued me about spoken word and got me hooked. I love to write and perform it and it has been a passion of mine for many years. It has been a long time since I have performed and hopefully I get enough courage to share one of my pieces with the class.

This was very nice. The poetry was very inspiring and beautiful. I have always enjoyed all of the arts and reading as well as writing poetry has always been a favorite of mine.
ReplyDeletethanks Lily...Yes I enjoy reading and writing poetry as well, my passion comes out when I am able to perform it because I can deliver it exactly how I want.
Deleteaaw!! i loved both of them! specially the second one.
ReplyDeletei am so excited to hear your poems! ;)
The way he speaks is very encouraging. The way he speaks makes me want what he's talking about even if I didn't know what he was talking about. Must means he's good at it! I've never gotten a chance to experience for myself ,but i would like to.
