It’s rhyme-time in this week’s episode of Fully Booked, as Craig and Roland explore the enduring power of poetry even in today’s fast-paced digital world. Their guide through the evocative world of rhythm and flow is Viral Gor, spoken word performer and author of “Poetry is Motion: Mind, Body, and Soul.”

Virus the Poet shares his insights on how poetry remains a vital form of expression and connection in the modern age, even as social media and technology increasingly dominate our lives. He argues that poetry continues to inspire, provoke thought, and evoke emotions in our rapidly changing world through its ability to resonate with a diverse audience and adapt to contemporary platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok.

Virus also argues for the therapeutic benefits of poetry, emphasizing how it serves as a powerful tool for self-expression and emotional healing for both creators and consumers. So whether you’re new to the genre, or have been waxing poetic for years, this discussion on the techniques and timelessness of poetry has something for everyone.
