Spoken word

Spoken word is like telling a story using words but instead of writing it down, you say it out loud to an audience. It's like talking to your friends, except on stage and to a larger group of people.

Sometimes people use rhymes, metaphors, and other fun language tricks to make their story sound even cooler. People who are really good at spoken word are called "poets" because they use poetry to express themselves.

Some spoken word performers use music, sound effects, or even dance to add to their performance, but the most important thing is the words they say and how they say them.

Spoken word can be serious, funny, inspiring, or even a little bit of everything. It's a great way to share your thoughts and feelings with others and connect with people who feel the same way.
