Slam Poetry!!!!

Hey peeps! I hope that you have all heard of slam poetry, if you haven't. :o Here's what it is: a blend of performing (acting) and poetry. Awesome, Right!!!! I'm working on perfecting one of my slam pieces, but since it's not very good yet, I'm going to put some links of great slam poets. Sorry, there is a little teensy bit of language in some, but they are amazing! Here we go:
This is a great performance one! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CT8_jxO4lWo
She is so good at performing and her message is so strong! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0snNB1yS3IE
One bad word but her message and delivery are extremely powerful. I'm going to tell my daughter one day : You are and are going to be freaking gorgeous inside and out. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M6wJl37N9C0
Keep believing and give hope to the hopeless http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JfTa4B7wQ_8
My favorite slam of all time. Everyone must watch!!!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rpW-xoCkRFE&feature=related
another great slam to look up is incisors by jim huscher. I didn't put it on because it has some language. I still love it though!!!!
I hope that you loved all of these poems and I might even post my poem. (maybe not slamming but I'll type it up.)
Have a great night peeps!

God made you special and he loves you very much,
Bekah
