I am not a poet. But, I love that poetry remains live and well after hundreds, thousands, of years. I commented on a poem the other day that reminded me of these two particular standouts, in my oh so humble opinion. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do!

First up, Jesse Parents’s- To the Boy Who Will One Day Date My Daughter

The second is Denise Frohman’s Dear Straight People

These are two of my favorites, but head over to youtube and it will take you down the slam poetry wormhole. I hope you love them as much as I do! (Sometimes referred to as spoken-word poetry, but they’re both the same thing)
