A great poet that should be checked out by one and all is Ken Arkind. A slam poet from Denver, he is the two thousand six national poetry slam winner and a social activist. A red bearded, younger looking, loud person that grabs your attention with his popping words and keeps you interested with his flow. I watched an interview with him by a poet named Eric Zork. Who is another interesting poet from White Plains New York. After watching some of Ken's pieces online I am a little inspired to write some slam poetry myself. I've never tried it. Ken travels a lot with his poetry and if you ever have a chance to see him you should check him out.
Read some poetry and never stop.
