It was just a few days ago that I went to an Open Mic. I mean its not the first time but each time I get out, I can't help but feel inspired, motivated, amazed at the talent shown and definately moved. Among many acts usually performed, Spoken word is one of the few that I always look forward to.
Spoken Word is a form of poetry that often uses alliterated verse and is from the poet’s point of view and also themed in current events. In entertainment, spoken word performances generally consist of storytelling. Spoken word has been a way for people to release their views and opinions. The spoken word evolved into the present day soap-box for people, especially younger ones, to express their views, emotions, life experiences or information to audiences. Most Spoken word artists talk about religion, politics, sex and gender and often taboo subjects in the world of today.
