As-Salamu Alaykum

It doesn't come on in the UK (i don't think), however i watch on youtube and there's a brilliant Palestinian American poet who's made a few appearances called Suheir Hammad.

Her poetry is very deep! Please watch and comment - i promise it's not long.

Peace

Blue Xull - It's a form of spoken poetry (i think) - so it does read like a speech - she's good though!

Liked the vid!

Peace

Not interested in** poetry (specially English poetry), but liked it. It was more like an inspirational speech.

Reminded me of this:

EDIT

She IS good but again I don't like emotional works.
