Are you having a hard time constructing spoken poetry? Well here is a step-by-step procedure on how can you turn your idea into self-expression poetry.
1. Choose a topic you are passionate to talk about.
-It is really important to find a topic in which you can demonstrate your emotions and ideas. Because Spoken Poetry is filled with emotions and you have to tackle a topic that you feel strongly passionate about. For example, you can do Spoken Poetry about Eudaimonia or ultimate happiness and you can talk about how building new friendships bring ultimate happiness to you. In that way, you are sharing your own experience which you can express freely and beautifully.
2. Bring it out
-Now that you have chosen your topic, you have to bring out details in your writing by having an imaginary question, “Why would the audience care about my topic?”. This is where you as a speaker, will shine. Flesh out your idea into your own story and make it look like it is made to be understood by everyone.
3. Practice it out
-Once your draft is done, feel free to read it out and choose the tone you will use. If you want the intro to be slower or you want it to be impactful. After that, put your shoes into the audience and evaluate how it sounds. After finalizing your tone and expression, you can revise and finalize your work and step up your game.
4. Present
-Now that finalizing is done, prepare yourself and let your nervousness get out inside you. Be confident in your work and practice it if you are still doubtful. No performance is perfect you just have to be yourself and carry out the performance.
I hope this step-by-step guide helped you in making your spoken poetry!
