Rafael Casal- Def Poetry Season 4 (2004) @rafaelcasal

getrafael.com twitter: @rafaelcasal I wrote this poem a few days before the show, when i got the news from my girlfriend at the time. that was the first time i had read it aloud. i dont really perform it much because..... i dont want to fake the emotion. i love this recording because its sincerity on tape. most of the mothafuckas on that show are so rehearsed. Poetry is...at its best when its serving to provoke dialogue. conversation. it is the personal narrative for the public dispute.
