My favorite def poet is Dahlak Brathwaite. The way he articulates his perspective on certain issues or certain situations is very intense and inspirational!!!!

Hello all, I'm looking for a little help finding a poet and the episode he was in. He was an Australian guy, bald, his stage name started with "S" and his poem was a comical poem about his experience losing his hair. if anyone can help me out, that would be great! _____ I looked around for a while, couldn't find it, posted this and then of course i ran across it almost right away. anyway, if anyone's intersted, his name was "RATSACK" and his poem was called "Losing you" -- Edited by dnsrunner at 08/27/2007 8:30 AM
