… cos of how much I really didn’t like it. Last night Gabriel Taylor Russ slammed poetry at an poetry slam. I had heard the piece he was going to perform before the event but this time he delivered it with much more loudy voice, handy gesture and conviction and angry face than ever before. He [...]
