Kevin Max Poetry Reading Blog

[NaturallyStyled]

Cool poem Kevin, I like that you're doing your own thing with all the creative art and poetry. But I gotta say I miss DC Talk. Y'all were the bomb. But also great solo :-)

[jbearclowater]

weird, the video is only playing half the poem right now. Does anyone know where a text version of this poem could be found?  I'd like to use it for one of my poetry classes, but need a text version. If there isn't a text version, could someone message me the full poem? Please?

[honson7]

Wow that was brilliant. Seriously. Nice work:)

[mistymorningk]

All I can say is Wow! That is something beautiful ! Thank you :) . Honesty , truth , and just the way it is simple as that .

[LovingLifeandWords]

Any chance we could get some more? This is YouTube we need more sanity up in here. So bring on the poetic waterfall of awesome.

[MsregiMac]

Dear Kevin,

I lived in Louisville, KY for 2 years and I totally get your poem. The bible belt has a way of social religion (a socially accepted facade). There is too much tradition and not enough of Jesus' love. ~Regina

[tamrella003]

I write a lot too - i was thinking of video blogging my poetry as well...

[Spiritwriter61]

Kevin, this is awesome! I've already enjoyed your singing, and this is the first time I've heard your poetry. I am new to YouTube, and I am moving forward on publishing a poetry book. It will have some very in-depth contents. My goal is to touch, encourage and be instrumental in making others think more positively about being alive.

[klogmurg]

[noname1052]

Masterfully done. Is there a transcript of it? Have a good week! God bless!

[writethatgirl]

Iam just home from my 1st poetry slam. I went w/a feeling of excitement. I was going to hear some poetry. What I found was theatrical story telling, which is fine but not what I was looking for. Now I'm online trying to find people simply reading poetry, leaving the words to mean what they mean, not interpreted w/theatrics. Shouldn't it be left up to the listener to do this? You have encouraged me, that a poem can still be simply read and enjoyed. I will soon share my own.
