  • Papergirl, I love your poetry. I'm sitting waiting for a class and listening to your poems while writing a poem of my own. You are amazing and I hope you continue to write and perform more :3

  • Hey, everyone.

    I just wanted to say thank you for all the incredible comments and your generous words about the art. I am currently working on a plan to add more poems and "re-release" some of the others. Thank you again for your interest, your observations, and your curiosity -- keep that. Don't lose that, ever.

    Love,

    Mary

  • @tennesseemary i love all your poems .........you rule

  • Mary, I have your videos on a playlist. Please add more so I can add more to this playlist. I plan on going to the Neo-Futurists as soon as my finals are over.

    It's sad that things have "gone down like that" over and over again for a countless amount of people, but you have managed to encapsulate numerous emotions in this poem, radiating such great beauty.

    I don't know how you manage to do it every single time, but you are so inspiring.

  • The way you delivered that... just wow. Really.

    I hope you're well.

  • This poem gives me goosebumps. You are truly an amazing writer and performer.

  • I just want to say thank you. Your poems touch me in a way few things do. K

  • Mary,

    Thank you for your courage, thank you for being someone that can shut down the filters of fear and tell whoever wants to listen your heart. I dont do that shit anymore either, and your passion and conviction and power that you convey is shared with me. We dont need to tell the horror stories, because we already know. I dont live in that dark place anymore... why should i go back?

    ("I hit my knees when i open my eyes")

    I wish you another 24

    Thank you again

    -Will-

  • The last line "I could explain myself but I don't do that anymore" it's just perfect so powerful I love her work =]

  • mary,

  • Mary, Thank you so much for posting your videos. Absolutely wonderful.  A friend sent me "love poem" and I have watched the rest.

    Namaste,

  • oh... i think my heart stopped! i never thought i could enjoy an american voice so much, but the depth, the depth, the depth...

  • This is very good. Very -pardon my lack of language- refreshing.

  • I wish that I could say something better than "Wow". Or remove the surprise from my face and gracefully put my jaw back in it's place. I wish that I could say that I can't relate. But I can. I could tell you horror stories, but you've heard them before. You've been there. The hardest things to hear are often exactly what needs to be said.

    And all I have left to say is "Thank you."

  • Thank you too, Phoebe. I appreciate it. No more horror stories, okay? :) Let's both do better than that.

  • Will do.

  • You are my favourite Slam Poet, I hope you know, you're positively amazing.

  • who is this woman ? (papergirl obviously) why is she so awesome though ? i mean... dude ... wtf ? DUUUUUUDDDEEE
