Slam Poetry Links

My favorite: He goes by the name of Noah. Very talented and very heart spoken, hard slamming poet. Hearing his first slam poem...I understood everything he said.

A local artist I chose is: Steven Kasala. He did a poem on how he didn't know how to do poems and how he thought poems were just a bunch of stanzas put together to rhyme. Teachers helped him for 2 months to put together a slamming poem and he talked about life as well as his grandmother. He put into poetry about how its going to be okay when you lose someone and it being okay, and that person being okay. Loved his poetry slam.

Multiple voices: I chose this multiple voice poem because it talks about hard labors that has went on in the past. They referred to their owners as "masters."
