This is another live performance done by Shane Koyzcan. "When the where-abouts of my destination can't be found on any map" I love this line because in the way of life you can't find out where your life is going to end up or where you're going to end up until the end. It's a sad realization when you think about it, but it's true, your life isn't complete until then. I thought that Don Alder was going to speak at some point, but his part in this performance was to add to the affect of Shane Koyczan was saying. It helped with the visualization and even had me 'pumped' up and ready to go. It drew me in further to what Koyczan was saying. I like that it told a story of an individual that became handicapped and in the he was able to inspire people as he went through life, not acquire pity.
Words are powerful when written down, but even more so when they are spoken. Shane Koyczan, a native Canadian, is a spoken word poet. I will share with you his poems and what I take from them. Spoken word has been around for many centuries and usually focuses on the words themselves and the way they sound, the gestures that a person uses with the words, and facial expressions. It brings feelings back to words in a society where technology has muted them.
