I am new in this
See, the 1st spoken word artist
My eyes heard of
Yes, my eyes heard
Was Wanjiku Mwaura,
And she fuckin killed it
Made me wana give her a kiss
Even after she making it clear
Over and over again
In her words
“I just don’t like you”
It was at WAPI
And I had gone there coz I had heard
Twas a HIP HOP event
I didn’t immediately let out
The love for this art
Which was hanging on somewhere in there
But that very day
Tis where it all begun
Months later, I met Immah
Who I now call her my Teacher
I read her poems and kept on pressing next
Till I got my most favorite
Immah taught me of 2 poetic events
KWANI and DISCOVERY
It’s at KWANI where
I 1st performed my 1st piece ever
I did chock mid way
But the crowd was very alive
That I didn’t mind
That Tuesday night I treasure to date
I got to DISCOVERY
Now this was THE SHIT!
POETS, who did their thing
I heard written sth dwn
But I didn’t get to due to time
Good thing I did see Immah perform
Left me looking for a chic who
Will talk to me about ying yang
And a feeling of completion deep down
I also did get to see Achieng Odhiambo
And she made me undo my zipper
To confirm if I was still what I am
Without sugar coating, she
Fucked the mic and molested the stage
Committed a state injustice
And brought orgasm to the insane- the WORD ADDICTS
Here I met Sitawa Wafula, who host the event
Who took me back to school
Which am yet to graduate?
Taught me the ABC
And now I can see,
The depth of each word
It’s through these 4 pretty ladies
That I have met hundreds that are awesome
But when all is said and done
Mama’s cooking beats chef Ramsey’s
So I salute you for this you have taught me
I blow kisses to each one
For I love you big
Sign out with a THANK YOU.
