Your voice
could change
someone’s
world. Why
change it?
Poetry has transitioned dramatically and rapidly over
the last few decades. From an art form that was
primarily a political and philosophical expression, it
has now transitioned to a confessional and personal
art form that tackles various topics. In several
religions, poetry is used as a prophetic medium and a
method to emphasize the depth of grief, love, and joy.
At Karibu Poetry, we believe poetry should be a safe
space for all poets to feel welcomed and this is our aim
behind every event that we host. We want our poets to
feel welcomed in every space, and to freely express
their truth to an audience of supportive creatives.
How many pieces can I
perform?
2 poems for poets, 1 song for singers,
and 1 skit for comedians.
