Last Thursday Kelly Tsai (Def Jam poet) did a spoken word movement workshop at my school. It was really fun, but the great part was the free write part. She had us do two and this is one of them. It is entitled "What you don't know about me is.."
"What you don't know about me is.."
What you don't know about me is I am a person who does not take any bs. I may let people walk all over me, but truly I hate it. I am a no nonsense kinda girl. If you do not like the heat in the kitchen then get the hell out. So what I am a "nice" person? Us nice people have limitations as well. So quit with the wanna be thug attitude because honestly it is not cute. I did not want to throw away 7 years of friendship, but you with your stupidness forced me to break free. I hate being tied down, and I resent the people that try to restrain me. I am a honest person. I do not try to sugarcoat anymore so I yes I am blunt. That is what you don't know about me after 7 years. I have changed, but I have changed for the better.
We were given 5 minutes to write whatever came out on paper without crossing out anything. I was shocked when the 5 minutes was up to see what was on paper. It is crazy what the subconscious mind is thinking. I have another free write which I will post tomorrow. I should do more free writes because I did feel a lot better after doing it and its pretty interesting to see what comes out after you are done.

Hmmmm...maybe I should try that!
Okay, I did, but I erased it because it was too much to share in a public forum.
