Beautiful and powerful!

I’ve always associated slam poetry with a rougher kind of speaking, with a passionate sort of venom in their voices. This poet’s voice was so passionate but so, so soothing. Their voice felt almost like rain. Not once did their voice raise or yell, but I still felt the same passion. Absolutely beautifully done

[@sirisha7175]

Trust me on this... They are just so deep... I mean I love them. They are one of those poets who doesn't make me feel insecure about my own art but rather liberates it. One of my all time favorite 🥺😭
