Until the Pen Runs out of Ink

Wikipedia currently defines spoken word as "a form of literary art or artistic performance in which lyrics, poetry, or stories are spoken rather than sung. ...One of the most common sorts of spoken word performances is performance poetry, where a poet either reads previously-published poems, or reads poems specifically written to be performed aloud. Another kind that has gained popularity in recent years is political and social commentary, done in such a way that it is, while still prose, somewhat more artistic than a typical speech. Spoken word artists are often poets and musicians." Kevin Matthews performs a lively piece. "Unitl the Pen Runs out of Ink" includes both some active social commentary and a tongue-in-cheek look at spoken word performers.
