Former teacher turned full time poet/standup Taylor Mali. I found out about him through pharyngula, and got briefly sucked into youtubery when I should have been studying. I think there's a little something for everybody here.
Oh god, this next one... traumatic flashbacks to highschool poetry. Kill me now!
This one's not a performance peice, but it definitely hit close to home. If you've ever wanted to be an artist, you probably know what I'm talking about. (Oh god please don't let me be the only one.)
And for those looking for a pick me up after that, here's my favourite. A poem I want to memorize for Jen, and just short enough that I might be able to do it. Until then, here it is by proxy, love. :>)
