Reflection

I really liked reading all the feedback given to me, especially what the judges said. The only thing I need to work on is speaking louder, which is hard for me because I get really nervous in front of audiences. Others liked my repetition, how I presented with emotion, and the subject of my poem. Doing a poetry slam was odd for me because I had never done one before. I hardly ever wrote poetry, so reading it out loud was weird. Seeing the people in the spoken word videos made me realize that I needed to put emotion into my poem. It was a lot different then just presenting a project, just reading words.
