Hello and welcome to the second edition of The E-Literature Catalog. Our theme this article is spoken word. Instead of defining our theme this time, let's start this article off with a bang.


Raymond Antrobus - Internal






From the source: Raymond Antrobus is an award winning poet from London, UK, having won the Best Performance from a London Poet at The Farrago Zoo Awards 2010. Raymond runs three poetry based events namely Chill Pill (Spoken Word), Try Poetry (Performance Art) and he co-runs Keats House Forum (Page poetry) with Simon Mole. In the 7 recordings that make up the Internal EP Raymond attempts to challenge preconceptions from an introspective point of view on matters about - personal trainers, living with deafness, heartbreak, performance poetry, flatmates and domestic violence.

CSPC Speaks - Winter 2013

Kinyo - Dreams/Imaginings

From the poet's website: The great thing about a poem is that it can be anything, and as a craft it’s mastered evermore as you approach a form that is formless and free. That’s exactly what I needed, I didn’t know what these thoughts were supposed to look like. I’d never seen them before, without a medium that allowed it’s shape and properties to become slave to the necessities of my expression I might have never known how to get the thoughts out.


The E-Literature Catalog is an article that aims to showcase three exemplary works of literature of a certain theme that are available online from renowned authors, performers, publishers and other trusted sources. Published writing can find its way to being legally hosted online through either becoming a part of the public domain or by being offered for free from the source. I will not be sharing links to illegally hosted literature (and do not condone it). I will be linking to verifiable and trusted sources.

Thanks for reading; let me know what you would like to see for next time!
