Hakim Be is Best of Burque “Best Poet” for the 3rd year running…
Posted: April 5, 2012 in Uncategorized
Statement of Thanks by Hakim Be:
Just as the feeling of being appreciated never gets old, there is no such things as “over doing it” with the practice of humility and giving thanks. Thank you Weekly Alibi readers and thank you Albuquerque. You don’t just encourage me to do what I love, you allow me to do it.
In the company of Levi Romero and Mary Oishi (two poets I look up to and am inspired by), I am thrilled to be considered “Best Poet” beyond the box (limitations) of slam poetry AS a slam poet. Thank you for doing more than accepting me, Albuquerque. Thank you for celebrating me. I thank God for you everyday, Burque. I am humbled and privileged to enjoy the mutual crush we have on each other…I hope it lasts forever. xoxo

Consider this an open letter to Jan Brewer: Ms. Brewer, your legislation and leading by horrible example will only fuel a fire of people across so many states; you will be sadly mistaken if you think we will go away. We stand, at the mic, at the border, on each other’s shoulders, in support of [...]
