Cum, Hear Some Poetry

Spoken word is the art you find at the intersection of poetry and music. Cultivated in the brains of artists who write to an imaginary beat that pulses in their heads, it is built to ignite passion, caution, or action. This stuff will make you move. Ingrid B. has been bringing the art of spoken word to South Florida for years, and you can trust that when she pulls together a cadre of performers, you’ll leave with poets’ lyrics ringing in your ears. Friday night’s show might also cause some tingling, um, down there.

Titled Cunnilinguistics, the name alone could titillate the unintentionally celibate, and that just might be the point. This evening of erotic poetry also features music by DJ Johnny Walker Red, who’ll keep the theme going with some grind-worthy beats. See you at the Literary Café.
