​

These spoken word poems were written in or about the heat of a particular moment. Whether the feeling incurred was anger, sadness or fear, love, lust or joy, this is my attempt at encapsulating that emotion and giving it life through prose.

These emotional poems are sacred to my heart and each has a strong attachment to the events that have shaped and molded me. Granted, most poetry, at least most of my poetry, contains an aspect of emotion. Its the tool used to capture identification. I've chosen these poems for my emotional poems section because they tend to grab me, take hold, and pull emotion that was hidden up to the surface. Sometimes, I cry.

Emotion has been the crux of poetry for centuries - one of its pillars standing next to storytelling. And spoken word, especially in its most modern form, has allowed people who might not even consider themselves "poets" to capture emotion in a more self-endearing, a more understanding, and in a more personal manner.

​Spoken word allows individuals to illustrate exactly what is going on inside. When I slam, I outwardly cast that emotion to my audience. Emotion is the epitome and the driving force that, when properly expressed (and by properly, I mean by slam poetry standards), turns words on a page into impressionable and unforgettable art.
