I ran across a poem on Instagram (screenshot from Tumblr) and couldn’t look it up fast enough. It felt like a slam poem. I prayed I was right. I was. Thank God. Sarah Kay begins and ends her TedTalk with poems. The first one is called “B,” (3:39) but seems to be known better by the first line: “If I should have a daughter.” I don’t want to say too much about her because you really do have to see for yourself. (I found the full poem written on this blog). What does she talk about? It’s a TedTalk, what doesn’t she talk about.
I might write a better post later, I am rushing because I’m so excited to share this! I'm listening to other work by her as you read this. Please, tell me what you think. About her. About slam poetry. About anything :) Here's her website: www.kaysarahsera.com
