Poetry

 Poem writing is a catharsis for pent up emotions.i had the good fortune to attend performance poetry workshops organised by the British Council.both Jacob Sam La Rose n Benjamin Zephaniah were awesome especially Benjamins dreadlocks.rip Benjamin

Writing poetry is like squeezing blood from stones

A word lost in the cobwebs of time

Digging out long buried memories

Its not some abstract ,snobbish recital

But a freaking explosion of non rhyme without

Reason

The pain that lurks behind the smile

Punching your way out of the barricade

Freeing your soul to live again

Thank you benjamin and sam.
