Talking With Poets – Kendall Hoeft and Poetyc Visionz at The Low Beat

This week, Thom Francis welcomes poets Kendall Hoeft and Poetyc Visionz to mic. They shared their work at the Brass Tacks open mic at The Low Beat in Albany, NY, on December 4, 2018.

The Brass Tacks open mic series at The Low Beat continued on Tuesday, December 4, 2018 with many poets signing up to share their work with the pre-holiday crowd.

On that winter night, Kendall Hoeft, a poet and writer currently residing in California’s Bay Area, read a poem titled “When the Body Breaks” and “Of Sea & Sky,” about fear and desire.

The great Poetyc Visionz was up next with two poems. The poet and graphic designer who now lives in Atlanta, performed a new piece “I Met God on Lark St.” and then another with his signature wordplay (local poet and photographer Dan Wilcox says, “was an example of why he has been dubbed “the Pastor of Positivity””), “Be Grateful.”
