I feel like a lot of spoken word poets have the tendency to cram the ideas in their poetry down the audience's throat. Sarah Kay is an artist who offers her art to the audience, most of the time on a silver platter.
This has to be one of the prettiest poems I've heard. It seems gentke and polite and completely different from anyone elses without clashing. I like that about her and her poetry
She makes me want to go back to college, to start writing poetry again, to go to the gym, and to treat everyone I meet like their life is poetry and to record it in words filled with grace.
This is the way Sarah Kay publishes her work. theres no way to write down her performance. it feels like shes not just finding words that sound good together and then shaping them into a story, I think her story comes first, and thats what makes her such a great poet.
every time i listen to her poems i feel like she's telling a part of my story, and in a way i suppose she is, because we're all the same only a little difference or two here and there..in any case, this is beautiful work.
(i wish i could tell her so myself, and go to one of her workshops but such is life and this will have to do.)
My postcard finally reached her after a year three months and two or three weeks. She told me she loves me. Yesterday. She told me she would marry me. This hit home more then once. This is my tenth time hearing this poem. My wish finally came true I hope hers does to.
this is really awesome, I've been trying out this style of poetry writing this last week, I have a open mic coming up, see how they go over. Nothing as good as Lady Kay is. But I wouldn't have tried it without listening to her stuff.
brillant as always, I wish I could just love her words, but I'm feeling in love and I don't know what, is the entire human being she is or the soul I discern, or the heart behind the emotions, English is not even my mother tongue, I don't understand every word she says but wow I'm in love for sure but don't know whereof i'm in love with
Her poetry is beautiful
