In Class Blog 6

Couldn't think of any in class text we read so I'm going to blog about the poetry slam. Let me say it was very different never thought I would ever experience something like that. Nerve wrecking but not as bad as I thought it would be I thought everyone was fantastic there where some very interesting poems and I think what made them go so well if the emotions you but into it and the acting if you act it out and show the emotions that the words are saying your audience will feel what you are saying. It also make the poem unique and that is what keep you interested in listening. There are so many ways to present a poem so the audience could understand and a lot of ways to lose audience like the reading to fast or not being able to hear the person and I thought that was my problem. I thought the poems where for the modern audience some could relate. The language of some of the poems had some slang and a little foul language here and there but that is common and that is what made the poems so dated and not uncomfortable to hear or read. The poetry slam put me out of my comfort zone but in all it was a great experience that I would remember.
