Fans, Friends, Artists




The second poem is by the talented songstress Erykah Badu. This poem is funny and intriguing at the same time. As a poet, it is good that you can make your audience laugh and think at the same time. Ms. Badu is very talented and it shows with this poem

Bittersweet




Being that I'm a fan of poetry, one of my favorite shows to watch is Def Poetry. So I would like to share with you a few of my favorite poems from the show. The first one is by Hip Hop star Kanye West. The reason why I like his poems is because he puts his own swag into what he is saying; he is not just saying it monotonously. I also like how he uses hand motions and gestures as oppose to just standing there. This is a good poem that I can listen to over and over again.
