More of this poet's work can be found at http://www.project-voice.net/poetry/.
Project Voice was founded and directed by Sarah Kay, and is also co-directed by Phil Kaye. They are great examples of young, fresh-thinking poets who have grasped the benefit that technology and the internet has on spreading the word about Spoken Word Poetry (no pun intended ha!).
I agree! Sarah Kay is a very talented young woman. I have seen many of her other pieces and love her expressive manners. She is very honest with her emotions, funny and a great poet. This was my first time watching this piece of hers and must say she does a good job at captivating the audience.
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed this :)
This is my first time seeing Sarah Kays work and I must say its very touching a real. She real a blut and talks about things that matter, like educating in a less boring way.
ReplyDeleteIt made me want to keep listening and I'm gonna look more into her work.
Thanks for sharing.
I love this video. “This is a great example of Spoken Word Poetry”. when I see her hand gestures and facial expressions, it is indeed reveal.
ReplyDeleteAhh, tedtalks they always have the best speakers on stage and best ideas on mind. Not a single moment of boredom and every minute is interesting. You always seems to keep listening and watching.
ReplyDeleteSpoken word poetry is really starting to look like a script of performance. The various facial expressions, hand gestures and tone require the reader to have a certain degree of acting skills.(I assume it is easier for the poet who wrote it since it will either be personal or they know the meaning behind the words)
