Poetry at Your Place feat. Analysis - Event #35

New Zealand's only regular online spoken word event! Plus it is pay-what-you-can-afford!

With the Your Place Grand Slam Finals in the making (Sunday 28th March – save that date!), we can't have a slam this week! Oh no! But it does mean we can have an open mic! Yay! And a feature - extra yayness!

And that feature is, none other than, Your Place family member: ANALYSIS - joining us all the way from Baltimore, in the US! I got fed up of forcing him to chop down pieces for slam and wana hear him in all his glory.

If somehow you haven't seen or heard Analysis before - you are in for a treat! He is a spoken-word poet, rad minister, bookseller and educator; as well as a fervent lover of justice and human rights - which all shine through in his poetry.

He is also the host of "Red Emma's Mother Earth Poetry Vibe", the author of "Somewhere Through the Haze" and the forthcoming album "A Couple Thousand Years Later", and is a member of Simply Poetic Entertainment and Restoration Village Arts.

Emily Dickinson famously said, ‘If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry.’ Analysis cuts heads. –Pamela Murray Winters, poet

As always, this event at Your Place is pay-what-you-can-afford, because finances should not be a barrier to art. However, if people do not honour that trust-system then this event becomes unsustainable and cannot continue so if you can afford it, please do – the money goes towards paying our artists and keeping this whole thing up and running.

And if you cannot afford anything, still come along and enjoy the poetry with my blessing (though do please help us out by sharing the event and getting some other folks along – that’d be amazing!) – we believe in human kindness at Your Place, so hopefully, someone who can afford it will pay a bit more and cover you ☺.
