Review of Alex Caldiero- Poet? [Carrier]
Yeah I clapped. That was great. I liked the peom because it was like an eye opener. It was artistic, and spoken very well. I like the idea of "poetry is needed here" thats about as true a statement as they get. Poetry is needed here. Is needed everywhere. Sweet.
