Shane Koyczan, Canadian Performance Poet - Olympic Level!

 

Poetry makes me think.  Poetry makes me feel all sorts of emotions.  Poetry tantalizes my senses.  And sometimes poetry stops me - dead in my tracks.

Shane Koyczan, Canadian performance poet, did just that to me the night of the Olympic opening ceremonies, Vancouver.  Sample "We Are More" - a proud Canadian tribute. 
 

Note - Shane also writes a lot of poetry about bullying.  While his content is moving and thought provoking, the language content is for an older audience and not suitable for younger audiences.
