BAC, I like the way this guy riffed on the President, but I'm not sure why this qualifies as poetry. It sounds and feels more like ranting in verse; that somehow, the depth and meaning of the words get lost in between the pauses for appluase.

I love Def Poetry with Mos Def. I miss not having HBO for this show and only this show. It is supposed to be hard and this man does a good job of it.

Sparticus - When I was first introduced to this form of poetry it was referred to as "slam" poetry. I really liked it, and Brian seems to do a good job. I just watched his one man show -- The Jesus Factor -- this afternoon, and it was great, so decided to share him with others.

Boxer - I don't watch Def Poetry all that much, but I do enjoy it.
