@cggaurav it's called "Word Document." :P Slam poets rarely have transcripts. It's even more rare than finding two copies of one poem on youtube. Once a poem gets taken down, it's gone. Gone. Or at least, a lot of them.
Since the audio has stopped working, I don't want anyone to miss out on the brilliance of this poem. So, I have transcribed it and the transcription is available here: lit.genius.com/Rives-gorgeous-annotated
I know this is an old post, but I'd like to sign this for my deaf theatre class and I was wondering if I could get a copy of this poem. Speedy63112@yahoo.com
Been looking for this for years
Hallelujah the sound is back!
This is my absolute favorite poem by Rives and he is my absolute favorite poet.
I don't even have the words to tell you how in awe I am.
eargasms! never heard that phrase before.
Love it!
And best description of what rives poetry does i've seen so far - eargasms!
you reaaaaaaaaaally need to listen to this again, the second time i heard it, i got it in a completly different way! :D
I love how he sais "flawless"... actually I love everything he sais, but "flawless" is my favorite word out of his mouth!

He is gorgeous
Wow...thank you for that.
You, sir, have tied my brain in a knot. Several, in fact.
MAD GOOD
You're definitely already gorgeous. Your laugh lines are so beautiful.

Its the art of the internet. A person moving to his words about what could be, but you cant hear what he is saying.

Definitely. I think I've put the word on a few of his videos. He's a fucking boss.
i know that no one asked but my favorite word is "cathartic" or "catharsis" ah me encanta Rives y este palabra.
It’s either Halloween or it’s not Halloween.
