Happy Valentine's Day: Sexy Poetry



When ever they talk about love they talk about people writing poetry, however when Valentine's Day comes around I don't hear anything about poetry. I personally think poetry is quite sexy (when written well) So here's a list of my favorite sexy/ romantic performance/spoken word poetry. Not all of them are about being in love so yeah enjoy. I decided to do spoken word/performance poetry because if I did written poetry it would be way too long. Also if you know of any sexy/romance related spoken word poems leave them in the comments.



Compliment - Rives: I'm posting both because the first one .. is my favorite but it has iffy sound quality.

Hot For Sorrow - Derrick Brown: 
My favorite version of this poem is not on youtube. (I hate the youtube version) my favorite version is on a poetry podcast the problem is that this podcast requires that you download it so just in case you hate the song and you just think it's sooo unsexy here is a way for you to listen to it without downloading it. Now if for some magical reason you want to download it the link to the poem is at the bottom of the site.

Honorable Mention
It's only Honorable because I put Rives at the top. He has so many sweet/sexy/romantic poems so choosing is hard but I think you'll like this one....
