SHAKE THE DUST.

Uploaded by jaydenshea on Feb 17, 2010
To see Anis Mojgani perform live is an exercise in jaw control. It's the classic "I laughed, I cried, I was transformed" experience. Imagine the perfect artistic expression of mans timeless struggle to understand God—to make sense of this life. Then watch Anis poetry. It's as if someone came into your dark, sleepy world of self and flung open the heavy velvet curtains to let the blinding light shine in.
Anis is one of those rare people who can talk about life in a real, accessible way. No fuss. No frills. No airy-fairy embellishments. Just BOOM! Your humanity, on stage, speaking to you. Even people who think poetry is well, lame, become transfixed by what they witness. So it's no wonder he has been the World Poetry Slam Champion as well as National Poetry Slam Champion (twice).

@cokane0991 "Dust" in the old testament resembled defeat and despair, things like that, so I guess it's self explanatory from there

@bs403 I never quite understood it until a week ago, when I showed it to a friend who is afraid cause she´s leaving school. I told her it was about embracing change, and I realized I had just realized that. It´s about shaking the dust that collects over your joints with time, to all those people who have given up or are about to, he tells them not to. He says that even you shake with fear, you should the door when something new shows up, and open your arms to receive it.
