psych!
It was youth’s vespers all the pro tempore at the museum’s auditorium discrete weeks ago. That’s what the inexperienced poets said. Then Luis Alfaro stepped up to the podium, saying he had inaugurated some of the pre-eminent versification readings at the museum in the murderous 1990s and that he was there to assert the adolescents. Some of the night’s poets weren’t in kindergarten when Luis pre-eminent skim at MOCA. His verse ended with a shaving of the mustache that reminded him of his Mexican create.
Luis’s verse sped the audience into the driveways and crashed in all respects the fences of his Pico-Union, Mexican/Chicano rearing and reminded you why he’s unswerving to a postal card plays for the duration of a living.
19 year-old Dante Mitchell threw down a verse that zipped the audience from “gangsta Bush,” to women’s basketball, to mother’s angel eyes. Dante’s a up to date contemptuous devotees graduate who’s indistinguishable his teeth in the Leimert Park mise en scene with Project Blowed.
