I don't really know much about slam poetry, but from what I have seen of it I really think it is cool. I admire the poets that spew out their stories and imagery with such force and feeling that it can really get you stirred up! Here are a couple that I have enjoyed:
Shane Koyczan, "the crickets have arthritis" - friend showed this to me after we had a little poetry session at someone's house.
And this one I found when at Mat Kearney's website looking for the release of his new album. His name is Anis Mojgani.
you have any favorite slam poets? I'm relatively new to this. I apologize that I can't post the videos, or I just don't know how! (update, as you noticed, I think I figured out how!)
