The Poetry Marathon

Good morning everyone!

This is my second marathon, last year I did the full 24 hour but this year I’m doing the 12 hour. Best of luck to everyone.

It all begins with the shoulders

Rounded rotations without stagnation

Make for a smooth roll.

The rebellion began

In my momma’s belly,

Would you believe

That I was born

To be a rebel?

With every

Wheel whirl

I come

Closer to

Realizing revolution.

It all begins with the shoulders

Rounded rotations without stagnant

Make for a smooth roll.

Hi!

My name is Joaquin Capehart but my friends call me Jae or JaeCee. I’ve been writing poetry now for 20 years. The most poems I’ve ever written in a day is somewhere between 2-3 … 24 is going to be a task but I’m looking forward to it! Okay, I’m going to sleep now. It’s nearly midnight in New York.

Good luck everyone!
