Buddy Wakefield - Run on Anything



In honor of the National Poetry Slam going on now (August 3-9) in Madison, Wisconsin. This is Buddy Wakefield. Buddy won the Individual World Poetry Slam Competition in 2004 and 2005. He has since released this album on Strange Famous Records featuring live performances and also studio pieces. Sage Francis appears (and actually the name of Sage's last record 'Human the Death Dance' is taken from a Buddy piece of the same name.)
To quote Buddy directly:
"If you've never been rocked back by the presence of purpose
this poem is too soon for you.
Return to your mediocrity
plug it into an amplifier
and rrrre-think yerself!"
