THE TENSE: Anis Mojgani
This man has more accolades than I can name here. National Poetry Slam Individual Champion in 2006 and 2005, one of only two people to win the competition consecutively. He is the 2007 World Cup Poetry Slam Champion, and took second place at the 2007 Individual World Poetry Slam. HBO def poet. Seattle Poetry Slam Champion
He was born and raised in New Orleans, Louisiana, now living in Portland, Oregon. Anis has written and published four books of poetry and produced the spoken word album aeroplane.There is something so simple and just... pure about this man and his work. So lightbulb switch and pocket watch honest. Those are some of the highest praises that I can bestow upon a poet and Anis shares this bite of refreshment for all that have ears. I urge you not to let yours go to waste.
Seeing the nature in the words of this man may be some of your fondest memories. So turn off the ambient light, the trappings, the artificial distractions and enjoy some of the universe shining through the atmosphere.
