KNICKS POETRY SLAM - d'Janau Morales a.ka. Vocab

Catch the show again on MSG Thursday, March 8 at 4pm - http://msgnetwork.com/tv_schedule.jsp

The 2006-07 Knicks season marked the fourth annual year of the New York Knicks Poetry Slam program. What began as an intimate gathering of just 20 students at a bookstore in Harlem during the 2003-04 season, Knicks Poetry Slam expanded to over 1,200 young poets and supporters at an open audition at the Garden this past December and brought over 500 people to the Theatre at Madison Square Garden for the Finals in January.

The New York Knicks Poetry Slam program utilizes the popularity of hip-hop and poetry to give young people a vehicle to express their thoughts, concerns, passions and dreams through the written and spoken word.

I just want to say thanks to everyone who has said positive things about this piece, it really means alot.

And ya, I totally agree, I did use my hands way too much. Lol. Don't worry, I've grown since then (not physically, I'm still short) but on a poetry level I'm less about the drama and more about the writing.

Thank you once again to all the positive comments :)

This is why I, as a chick, hate modern feminism. It's incredibly hypocritical and pointless.
