As I have mentioned before, I very rarely have any patience for spoken word poets. Reasons for that aren’t really important. But when spoken word is done well, it’s amazing. I heard this song by the Flobots the other day and Ben just posted the song and it reminded me I wanted to know more about it. I think these guys might be more hip hop, but poetry is poetry and this song is great. A great progression. I would suggest seeking out the video because it’s very interesting.
So here is Flobots’ “Handlebars”.
