Mutah - Speak Easy 23/03/10

Here at Speak Easy we enjoy poetry on all themes from all traditions, so whatever you want to say, however you want to say it, well welcome you to the stage. Following on from Rich we have another first time reader, Mutah, who demonstrates this to great effect, with two tuneful poems.

In his introduction, Mutah tells us he is a Bantu lyricist (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bantu_languages), and his first poem Collisions is about physics. Equally insightful and intriguing is a second poem about his friend, which has a somewhat political bent. He delivers a fairly short set, but it is very enjoyable, and his warm and friendly manner adds a great deal to it. We hope to hear him perform for us again soon.

Whether you do Physics, English, Social Studies, Horse Care or nothing at all (or all of the above), wed like to hear your thoughts on it at our next event. Information can be found on our Facebook groups page http://www.facebook.com/home.php?ref=... or our Twitter page http://twitter.com/TweetEasyShef. Contact John (j.turner@shu.ac.uk) to book a five minute slot, or just turn up on our doorstep and well throw you straight onto the stage. In the nicest possible way.
