Slam Poetry

Today at Fraser Heights, we had a slam poet come to perform for the school. His name was Zaccheus Jackson and he is a very interesting person. He not only recited poetry, but also talked about his personal life and how it connects to his poetry, and even made some jokes here and there. He also explained to us about some history about performing poetry. Zack performed really well and got the entire audience involved, whether it was with a question, or by personally interacting with the audience. He recited his poems with a lot of energy and it was hard not to notice the expression he put into his words, although some times it gets hard to hear the exact words he is saying since he talks so fast. I really enjoyed his presentation and hope to see him again if he comes back to Fraser Heights.
