This was a powerful performance and leftysergeant is right. Poetry is personal, poetry comes from the heart. Not everyone has to like it. I, too, am a writer myself, but I don't press my work on everyone. If they're interested, great. If not, it's all cool to me. I write for me. Alicia spoke for herself, and that was a powerful performance. Quite relatable.

true. im a huge otep fan and i watch her "dedicated to my enemy" a billion times which is why i started watching others. the thing is, she doesnt get noticed cuz shes not another cookie cutout of mtv.
but im not dissing on alicia keys. she's different from other popular singers, and this is really passionate and deep. i liked it
Yeah, very good ...( 6 days ago by lalaSTOOPID)
Yeah, very good point. I dont really like mtv as much as my friends. The only reason i might watch it, is because they air an artist that I like. Not rap or pop, metal. They usual dont. But im glad on friday they premiered slipknot...although...they also premiered the jonas brothers...on the same night...I think it was an inside joke. Anyway it was hilarious because the jonas brother fans were scared like hell.
