SPOKEN PERCEPTIONS
How do you perceive spoken word poetry?
How do you perceive performance poetry?
Is your view linear? one way?
Or do you envision the rhythmic pattern
of words spoken to the wild 'n out of
rock, the smoothness of R&B, the
syncopation of jazz, the rock of hip hop,
and the soulful sound of soul? And do you
imagine THE WORD CAN STAND ALONE?
Can you ingrain in mind, action, and film
the mastery of performance poetry to
make the umpf, that difference in your
commercial, movie, and/or psa? The
cadence rhythm bringing the drama, the
point, the thrill, the laugh, the
indignation, the chill to your soundtrack?
Do you see a great collaborations where
rap once went, music, dance, theatre,
print, imagery? Imagine.
