Tanya Davis- Subtlety Spoken Word Performance on POP"T CULTURE TV

[forgetthese]

You string words together like the wind blows leaves.

[pete8811]

Nicely said.

[scottkander]

I like your art and your voice is comforting:)

[MrDeadsea000]

These are like rap lyrics. Something like what Eminem would write...

[getgroundedtv]

@MrDeadsea000 hahaha...best comment yet

[MrDeadsea000]

@getgroundedtv Are you being sarcastic ?. Wtf is your problem ?. If you don't have the mental capacity to deal with criticism, at least learn to discern it when you see it. And if you don't like or agree with peoples opinions, you have can either disable the comments, or you can resolve your arrested development issues with a qualified professional. Acting like you know everything there is to know, will just make you look like a cunt. PS: I like this poem and poetry in general..

[getgroundedtv]

@MrDeadsea000 chill out...i just said that you had the best comment so far. I do find it funny that someone would compare her to eminem, to me their worlds apart, but yes, we all have our own opinions. Glad you like the poem.

[MrDeadsea000]

@getgroundedtv I honestly don't know how I came to that conclusion, but it seemed logical at the time. Sorry mate, if it's any consolation, i do feel liken a bit of an ass.. Cheers

[Tumbletruff]

@MrDeadsea000 This is much deeper and less psychotic than Eminem.

[johnAshpool]

How the world would be a better place, if more people are like her.

[jldobrinska]

love this!  resonates deeply! So glad you share...it's how we become human again!

[b0rnt0b3f4m0u5]

i want to be the friend of this old lady,mann her words are mind-blowing,great poet! i love you btw.

[MrDeadsea000]

@b0rnt0b3f4m0u5 Old lady ?. Lol, she wouldn't like that...

[DarkWrayne]

Another masterpiece. Bravo.

[mrbeastmaster]

she is amazing!! i love her

[fwuzzfwuzz]

She is truly my hero - beautiful from the inside out!

[alicesonisrael2010]

I love her.Simple.

[nofutureface]

just found out about Tanya and I'm loving her work! She speaks from her heart and doesn't feel the need to "sound" like a Slam Poet, I hate that "voice" people use. Be yourself! Tanya does it right, definitely feeling this....

[wshreek]

at certain points i felt it like rap, only if there were a few beats. How beautiful it would be to have rapper with such meaningful strong words, and not like today's rappers who have 5 f words in 1 line with hollow meanings to the lyrics.

[getgroundedtv]

@wshreek i would say you don't know hip hop then.....there is much out there that is exactly what you want, just dont look to main stream rap for it

[getgroundedtv]

@wshreek dont mean that in a negative way, just that if you like this, there is some amazing hip hop you would like!

[TheGoddesstuff]

this is so perfectly me....

[CapitalFProductions]

Now watch as a rapper will steal this, put over a lame beat, and autotune it to hell. Oh and random dancing models

[parazorritos]

I love this poem by Tanya, It's one of my absolute favorites.

she has inspired me to try writing poems myself, and I would be forever grateful if some of you poetry lovers would give me some constructive criticism. I have a poem on my channel, If you'd like to give a listen.

[tesoro6355]

Very well said. Beautiful, it touches the heart.

Have a good and happy 2012!

[HeydayGames]

You know, her words almost resonate as hip hop sometimes. She has a delivery and cleverness that the best hip hop has. Clear, concise, effective, and impactful.

[aurvakur]

I love you Tanya!!!! I can recognize myself so much in your words!!!!

[lorivandien]

Why don’t you invite a chemo patient for coffee and lend your hanky to them? If you’re anything like my husband, you’ll send them to an early grave with your whining and then b*tch they didn’t send you a thank you card or invitation to the funeral. “Love doesn’t seek her own, but rather things of others.”

[aurvakur]

@lorivandien what about what she is saying can in any way be compared or interpreted as "whining" to you? does her uncomfortable truths remind you of being a burden?

[UniverSouLove]

Flawless delivery and a very truth-filled message. Simplicity and art at its finest.

[LyndonBean]

It has been a very long time since I've read or listened to any type of poetry with true interest and sincerity. Thank you, Tanya Davis.

[PrettyPrincessMurder]

Perfection, this is great

[mcgehee333]

You're authentic...I appreciate who you are! God bless...pure love and light!

[jacobjeanify]

Truthful sincere poetry always gets me. She is good...

[mackinnonfamily]

I really do love this - both her words and the way she speaks them. Beautiful.

[Groovinmegzz]

I love this. I relate so much to her words. I've listened to this about 10 times through. <3

[jeffryruga]

Her words flow, her delivery is fluid, and some of the words rhyme, I love it.

[msjulicious]

Wow she is great

[megandorothy]

brilliant... my favorite poet.

[simplesecrets]

A true inspiration to be one's self. I love her and her art.

[Gothistian]

Wow...

[mountainserenity]

Keep sharing your beautiful heart. It's too beautiful to keep to yourself. Poets can't be subtle about the truth. It spills out like living waters. 

[wge621]

beautifully written, beautifully told

[KillMeLoveIsRad]

I love her voice @_@

[ihave2siamesecatsthx]

[ssmukta]

You are saying the words and I feel you are talking about me. You are beautiful and your words need no adjectives.

[caitlinkmurphy1]

Love. Love, love love.

[caryshj]

I discovered this because it was listed as one of the 'related videos' to a film someone made for one of my poems. Not only can I relate to everything you say, but coincidentally (if there is such a thing as coincidence) I noticed this video was also uploaded on my birthday. Thank you for your honesty, this was exactly what I needed to hear today. Carys xXx

[valunlimited]

LOVE IT! BEAUTIFUL!!!

[emmasarah88]

Listening to this is amazing, it expresses so much that I connect with and so much of who I am as well. I'm glad I am not the only one in the world who lives life like that! Thank you.

[meatopiaz]

makes me cry and laugh at the same time, i love your courage! subtelty was never my speciality either, always was so visible and fragile :) love and blesses!

[pinky1494]

[TheKickasskatie]

i love her so much. this poem feels like it was ripped from my soul. im so happy she has the talent to write so beautifully about something so personal.

[a1m33frank]
