i love poetry because it isnt like rap-there is no dissing other artists....but this poem???started off with something like a battle why????...i liked the ending though
@nosiphogumede he wanted to do a slam poem like a battle rap. halfway through he thought it was shallow, and offset it by turning it into a commentary about putting up a strong front to hide your fear. hope i helped!
"I remember being thirteen feeling not so satisfied and the next five years I got jumped, seen friends and both my grandmas die" - gives me chills everytime -3

love louder than a bomb.
Literally watch this poem at least once a month. Sometimes a few times a week. Every once in a while 2 or 3 times in a row.
Every viewing you hear or understand something new.
Amazing writing and presentation
