You and I are like neighbors fam. Do you go to any of the local poetry slams? I lack courage to go to one by myself :( To say that some of my pieces would be regarded as controversial here in the bay area would be an understatement!

I've never explored any slams or open mics. Part of me feels poetry is mostly a written art, but that part may also just be a coward.
It's one thing to be raw and vulnerable on a page that strangers read on their own time. To do it on stage, in front of a crowd, would be a very different experience.
We'll have to find the bay area Steemit meetup and have a political discussion sometime. I'm sure it would be fascinating.
