With all of her other poetry that I know by heart at this point, I keep wishing I could experience them for the first time again and again. So I kept delaying listening to this poem despite how incredibly excited I got when I saw it, because I know I only get a first time once and I really wanted to savor it and save it for a special occasion. It was so worth it. Now on to listening to it over and over until I commit it to memory.

We would be great friends.
Thank you, Sarah. I've missed your poetry and I needed this tonight.
I love hearing her poetry. Her voice is soothing.
Listened and watched this 4 times consecutively... Standing firm on the very same spot, but moving, racing miles, while taking us all along, with Her words, Her facial expressions and waving signaling arms and hands... WHAT A NATURAL AND WONDERFUL POET!!! I'm mesmerized...❤❤❤
From one writer and poet to another, thank you Sarah for such profound, organic, and remarkably clean (yet masterful) word play. I wish there were more poets such as yourself. Grateful to hear your poetic voice again. :)
As a english learner, she just poured bunch of new vocabulary at me to learn!

@@nathaliaarcos1852 me too! Sarah is an absolutely delightful entry to English language! I love her so much! so freaking much, what a poet!! Glad someone else is experiencing the same giddiness of adventure I experienced! Good luck with your learning, all the best, historyhub845! If I may, I also recommend Useless Bay and Ghost Ship, my all time favourites, then Dreaming Boy, Orange and Minister of Loneliness - exquisitely beautiful poems!
I'm several months late but still glad I made it to where Sarah belongs. I love everything about her.
Sarah Kay.... you will always be my favourite spoken word poet. You are brilliant.
I love Sarah's poetry and voice. So glad to hear something new! Like other people have commented, needed this

What is happening? The first time I ve ever seen a negative comment about the one and only Sarah Kay. If you don t like (or get) slam poetry, you don t have to listen to a 3-minute poem😅
Really cool, I’d like the Starfishs’ number…

Beautiful

Okay
This reminds me of my favorite poem of all time: "Stick A Sock In It" by God.
True what one YT said. Beautiful and elloquently stated. The universe hasn't called me. I've called the universe.... with no answer. I'd need to be able to be around humans without them hurting me before I could ever do a Ted Talk. I have no problem showing up though. I've served.
Ok what's the story?
Posession is 9/10ths law; look forward to seeing your venison videos.
First
Take a look at what is happening in Palestine.
Don't do drugs kids.
45 seconds and I give up
So bad
I apologize to the KZread algorithm for accidentally letting it play to the end while I struggled to cram half of my arms into my ears and press the exit button with my left butt cheek.
Free Palestin 🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸
Creative writing propaganda, show the dislikes. This bullshit has to stop
Poor effort to sell this verbal vommit for poetry. What a shame
Ok is this a coffee shop and where are the bongos to add to her dramatic stops
This was, by far, the biggest and most non-educational waste of time that TED has ever put out. This presentation belongs in a Starbucks.

It's 3 minutes out of a 30 minutes presentation. It's spoken word poetry. I guess you didn't really get it.

Word vomit bro
Does anyone else find poetry agonisingly pretentious and cringeworthy? The stereotypical cadence is like an awful failed drama student who works in a bookstore and pretends to live in a fairytale.

A lot of people that perform poetry just won't let go of that forced way of saying things and allow themselves to use scripted words with more natural expression. I guess they call it slam poetry because you want to slam your head or something into it.
