“Hate is a strong word. But it is the only strength that I have left.” Immediately crying. Amazing line. Whew.

Freakin phenomenal
"Fear of joy is the darkest of captivities" DAMN
"Montague (you) would be so happy if we could Capulet (let) this go" Genius. Pure unfiltered genius.
So much of Button Poetry has poets with the same style of rhythm, rhyming, the "spoken word" voice, but Phil Kaye has a way of speaking that avoids that cliche completely. He makes you stop and listen. He does not hurry through his poems, he lets each word sink in where appropriate, and it makes you feel the storytelling of the moment. I love spoken word poetry, but so much of it feels like finger-pointing and preaching, especially when they all merge together with the exact same speaking style duplicated across dozens of poets. Phil is different - more vulnerable, more creative, and more powerful.

Thank you for articulating this.
"forgetting is the only gift I wish to give you." such a well put out line. And what a piece of art it is! Loads of love, Phil ❤️

That's literally what I said clicking on the video 😂
Phil is one of those artists that I avoid the comments until I’ve fully been immersed in his words. And by God, what captivating words woven into unforgettable stories.
What an exquisite piece of art. It sent tingles down my spine.
When I see Phil Kaye pop up in the algorithm, there is no hesitation.
I bought Phil Kaye's Audio Book yesterday and it was so worth it! Can only recommend it to everyone.
Phil Kaye, you are an inspiration. Thank you for showing us your talent
FANTASTIC. That was so well thought out and so well delivered.
"forgetting is the only gift i wish to give you"🔥
"Fear of joy is the darkest of captivities"😰
A worthy poem in 2022. A worthy poet who delivers the truth skillfully and passionately. Inspiring, and yet with words sewn in the hems.
His words makes me feel something
The last two lines were a Romeo & Juliet reference, which tied in how he mentioned the Montague and Capulet thingy earlier in the poem
i had chills the whole time
Always so brilliant
Amazing that this is titled "Teeth" and he said teeth looked like tombstones in the piece. 🥺

Hate is a strong word but it's the only strength that I have left I felt that
I don't want to cuss.. but good Fu...dge muffins. It struck me with "in an oven, he does not know the irony of it yet" and rent my guts with "birthday songs of children".
