We're back in ‘75 again and somehow it feels like I've been this way before. It seems like it's high time we hop in our Chevy Van, get movin' on, and roll on down the highway in the express lane.

For almost 50 years, Rick Telander was one of the best sportswriters in America. And then this year, his collection of poetry was published. He's still one of the best sportswriters in America. But now it turns out he's a pretty good poet and a lifelong student of the craft. Ben and Rick explain how poetry is a metaphor for everything. And how Donald Trump violates Robert Frost's axiom about playing without a net. And so much more. His poetry collection is Sweet Dreams. And he's a columnist for the Sun-Times.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

'Poetry Man' by Phoebe Snow. PS future Alex: Imaginary Allen Ginsberg and Imaginary Nathan Ascher and Imaginary Patti Smith conference-called with a unanimous message that songs, like poems, do not have to rhyme. You don't have to stage a revolution to overthrow rules when someone already did ages ago. The Calvinball is in your hands. Go hard, go long, make your own rules, and keep them changing to throw off anyone chasing you down to take your ball away. This is your season. Everyone has the right to make an ass out of themselves.

"AUTHENTIC SOUL"Christopher L. Fields is a Spoken Word Artist out of Washington D.C. His wordplay, passionate delivery and his love for Poetic Expression earned him the moniker of “The Poetry Man”A natural born Poet, with no formal training, Christopher wrote his first poem when he was 7 years old – An Anniversary gift to his Parents; Charles & Dorothy Fields. Although he was a shy child, he continued to write, but he didn't share his poems with anyone around him. That all changed the day that his Mother discovered some of Christopher’s Poems hidden away in a box, and told him; “You need to write”.It would be a few years down the line before Christopher fully embraced the role of Poet, but the rise of “Hip Hop” gave him yet another platform to display his lyrical skills on. Ghost Writing for a friend, until that same friend convinced him to step out of the shadows and stand center stage.Now armed with the sophisticated elegance of Poetry, and the Raw guttural expression of Hip Hop, Christopher developed his own style of writing and performance. Christopher doesn't recite poetry; he is Poetry - in motion, in the stillness of your heart, in the recesses of your mind and down into the wells of your soul.Christopher’s strong belief in thepower of collective works leads him to coin the phrase: "WE" are Greater Than "i".Welcome to The Poetry Man Experience.

Join your hosts April Sims and Christopher L. Fields aka Poetry Man as they welcome Tshombe the Poet to the show. A little bit about Tshombe the Poet Born in New Orleans, La. His parents decided to raised him and his three siblings abroad in Israel where he received most of his education. After returning to the US in the early 90's, he enlisted in the US Navy where I currently serve. He is married to his wonderful wife Dedre (Dee-Drah) of 9 years, but whose counting, huh? Tshombe began writing life as he lived, saw and felt it onto page where he later started a blog called Truth Theory which which became his moniker. After a short while he developed a following in his poetry/spoken poems. He achieved the qualifications of becoming a spoken word artist after performing his poems "The Revolution", "Imagine That", and "Changing Faces" on stages from Chicago's Negro League Lounge to The Hawaiian Hut in Hawaii (the country's largest poetry venue). After a series of creative initiatives and created venues, some successes and failures, he founded what is now known as The STORM in June of '07 where he is the host of the famous Freedom Verse Cafe. Tshombe self produced, published and marketed his first album titled "IAMNOTAPO3T" as a "home grown" project that led to many other success in the way of production opportunities and brand marketing. He has just released his sophomore album entitled "Verbal Jazz Vol. 1" which has received countless praises for its quality and value. He has definitely gained the respect of being a poet amongst his peers and is known for his "reachback" attitude to help other aspiring writers.
