MAN-MADE
From time to time, a slightly different kind of a poetry gig:
this time at the University of Jyväskylä
on 21st of August.
Since it was an international forum and audience,
the language was English.
For the occasion I wrote a spoken word -poem,
which was partially based on my old Valley Below -lyric.
The gig left me with a good feeling,
and when I got home, I recorded the poem,
if nothing else, as a reminder.
The reading of Man-made -poem is available
on my YouTube channel, here:
The casual occasion was part of the conference entitled:
"Understanding the Dynamics of
Continuous Professional Development
in a Tech-Driven World".
Of course, you consider whether your text has got anything
to contribute on such a forum...
however, based on the feedback, the poem
possibly reached out for
the central themes of the event.
