Thanks for listening

It's remarkable how the audience ruins a poem about silence because some people have to make themselves be heard after every goddamn line.

[@m.b6565]

They literally didn't make a sound 😭😭
They acclaimed him at the end of the poem, because it was an extraordinary one, but that's all, they didn't disturb him nor when they noisy during the delivery

@@m.b6565 Dude, I have certified 30% hearing loss on both of my ears. If you can't hear the "uhhm"ing and "hmm"ing after almost every line, you might wanna see a doctor about that.

That’s how spoken word works. There’s a give and take with the audience and the performer. The more energy the audience gives, the more energy the poet will have on stage
