Arizona: Poets
We found some old video from 06 today. It’s just some video of different poets - Some local and some not. It was shot at South Mountain Community College (SMCC) in Phoenix, Arizona.
1st a bit about the school: SMCC is a cool (not so little) community college that sits almost at the base of South Mountain. It’s in the heart of South Phoenix (what used to be the Black side of town, but that’s another story). It’s been there for years. However, over the years as new homes were built and more tax dollars came in, the school also grew. It’s now home to an amazing state of the art performing art center and a diverse student population.
Some of the students and faculty got together and decided to pull together a slam competition and invited some well-known poets out for the event. It ended up being a hit with the students, poets and community…just a lot of love and support. I wish I could tell you who won, but I forget.
Many people do not know it, but Arizona has a strong spoken word community. Many of the local spots have been holding down various open mic nights for several years. We’ll try to pull together a list of some of the most popular hot spots for the poet lovers to check out if you’re ever in Arizona.
Just another example why you shouldn’t judge a book by it’s cover.

With summer fully underway, many of us are beginning to feel a bit overwhelmed. Without having the luxury of dropping everything and jetting off to a private island, we need to find a way to get back on track and back in the game.
Knowing that we’re all getting our physical exercise (like good little boys and girls), I just want to give you a friendly reminder that we need to also keep our mind in check and our creative juices flowing. One great (and affordable) way is to try Kundalini Yoga. Briefly, Kundalini is…
The science of Kundalini Yoga provides us with a vehicle that gives us practical tools to help cope with the escalating change in our environment. Kundalini Yoga incorporates a working understanding of the inner science of the mind, body and spirit that will enable you to experience your true Self. A soul filled with unconditional Love, Joy, and peace. [excerpt; www.shaktiyogi.com]
