Naked Poetry with The Positive Force
Sunday, Oct 11, 1-3 PM EST
why poetry?
language is
a living art
it is smoke
and mirrors
a powerful call
to action
it has the power to limit us
if we allow it
it has the power to free us
if we allow it
the only way to use written language to express ourselves, our visions, and our shared mystical experiences with true integrity and beauty is through a poetic lens
leaving interpretation open
for all
creating new meanings
and understandings
of the shared
human experience
poetry reminds us that no one is an expert
and that everything is uncertain
poetic language reminds us
of our shared uncertainty,
curiosity,
bewilderment
and fascination with life, death, and rebirth.
why a naked reading?
we came into this worldly existence fully exposed,
raw,
sensitive,
and vulnerable
beings
we will leave and transition into the next experience the same
raw
sensitive
vulnerable
beings
nudity is as natural as the wind
in order to cultivate a sacred and poetic space,
we will expose our natural ability to be
raw
sensitive
vulnerable
beings
are you afraid of nudity?
what are you afraid of?
bring your fears to the naked poetry reading
free them with your poetic voice
and share sacred space with poets and poets-in-training
why now?
because now is all we’ve got
