Two for Poetry Friday

On Fridays, a cadre of bloggers in the kidlit world focus their posts on poetry. (A roundup of today’s explorations can be found here.) I don’t participate often, but this week I was inspired by these two poems from slam artist Taylor Mali. Watch, and enjoy:

“What Teachers Make” by Taylor Mali

“Totally, Like, Whatever, You Know?” by Taylor Mali, typography by Ronnie Bruce
