My First Time

I don't do much blogging on this Spot, but I just had to write about the first time I got up in front of people and delivered my poetry as spoken word.
Although I didn't make much eye contact, I think I did ok. The people for the most part figured I would speak softly, so my booming voice surprised them a lot.
The feedback I got was very nice. I met a second member of Apotheosis Epidemic, Rap Game Blvd, who made me feel very comfortable. I must say that those guys have been very helpful, open and engaging about their poetry and mine.
Thank you to Teresa, who moderated Poetry Nite at the Mod, for her kind words and soft smiles. Thanks to the audience who endured with me as I stumbled a few times, probably more noticeable to me than them.
