What a powerful performance. The poem is amazing to begin with, but this is such an amazing performance in the recitation. Your raw power and emotion come through so clearly. I am so glad you did dust this off and share it here, this needs to be heard! You made me tear up by the end, you just kept rolling and rolling and the energy was building up like a thundercloud and your last line just released it all with a crack of lightning.
