Harvesting the English language has produced fruitful dividends beyond his wildest expectations. The spoken word artist, photographer and promoter can be seen showering his audience with optimal offerings every first Monday in various venues around the city in the “For the Love of Lyrics” poetry show. During the day, Morris teaches the craftsmanship of poetry at Temple University. - Read More”

“I was speaking to an actress who referred to poets and spoken word artists as" selfish... Almost immediately my ego swelled in defense of my craft, but logic and patience overcame the moment and my ears replied by listening. My listening was validated by: "...they write for themselves, with only themselves in mind...they are the only ones on stage, where actors rely on others to make it happen..." The point that was made was later proven to be true, except in "group performances" written by and for poets. {More of this article is vailable on the publication web site.}”
