My First Feat. @ The Nuyorican Poets Cafe
Recently, I got the honorary opportunity to feat. for the 1st time at the Nuyorican (Feb. 27th) It was kinda a draining night for me. And I got more "Honest" than I ever have in any other feature performance to date. I wasn't in church, but I did, in s sense make a confession to the congregation. Below is one of the major ones I revealed, that have never done b4. I'm still, in some ways, learning to open up to connect the people a I grow in this sacred art form. I believe its one of my most personal poems to date. It hits home to me. Take from it what you will and give me some feedback.
