First performance. Top Story - September 2025.
Super nervous at the prospect of performing some of my poetry for the first time at an upcoming local open mic event. I have often heard comedy writers say that they never got anywhere with their work until they started performing stand up. I wonder if the same it true for poets. I also feel that poetry is primarily a performance art, not a literary one. To me, rap and hip-hop are the closest you can get to pure poetic expression.
