Share a Slam Poem!

You know that feeling where you're just stunned, or you're shaken with emotions so powerful that you finally feel heard, and understood, and it's kind of scary in an overwhelming way? Well, it's 2 AM here and I'm nowhere near being able to fall asleep as I cannot get some of these poems out of my mind.

Please share your favorites or ones you've recently found, and we can be moved together.

My two all-time favorites:

Also, Andrea Gibson. Always. And. Forever. Especially "Living Proof" or "Truce".

Ones about depression:
