BILLY LAMONT Poem Recital Video of – I BELIEVE DREAM PEACE – As Prayer For PEACE In THE HOLY LAND At WALT WHITMAN BIRTHPLACE, South Huntington, NY.

VIDEO LINK: https://youtu.be/D283w4cIepY?so=weYCXKlFUOFP9nj_

I was REALLY Feeling the recital of this poem, in this timing, at the WALT WHITMAN BIRTHPLACE One Week Ago On Sunday, September 22, 2024. As I was hearing the news that the war in The Holy Land appeared to be escalating today, I was alao scheduled to recite my poem I BELIEVE DREAM PEACE, written for Muslims, Christians & Jews in The Holy Land a few years back, and now appears in the newly release Bards Annual 2024 Poetry Anthology. The Holy Land and its children, woman, and men were heavy on my heart as I recited.

Thank You to the amazing poet, & my good friend JAY JII for thoughtfully videoing my recital. I Believe the video captured this raw moment sort of like capturing lightning striking in a bottle!

I hope you enjoy my poem recital and it can be inspirational to you! 🙂!

❤ ❤ ❤
LOVE, LIFE & PEACE,

Bay Parkway Poetry Reading presents Billy Lamont performing his work. The idea of American Poetry Intersection / Bay Parkway Poetry Reading Series is simple – poet reads in one take, no edits, no filter, no makeup, all the natural sounds we may hear during the performance are the interactive and organic parts of the current moment.

Video record was made by Kethy Jane and David Dephy, using the iPhone only.

I Am Grateful to FATHER JOSH LICKTER and the ASSEMBLY FOR HUMAN RIGHTS for the nice article on their website about my new poem recital on behalf of JARNAIL KAUR & the suffering ADAVASI – FIRST NATION PEOPLE OF INDIA at the NYC POETRY FESTIVAL Thank You FATHER JOSHUA LICKTER for being the catalyst inspiration to my awareness for this poem.

My first performance video of this new poem is not only on the ASSEMBLY FOR HIMAN RIGHTS website, but also was emailed out to 14,000 supporters. I am very thankful that my humble poem, & first raw poetry recital of it, is being magnified on behalf of the Adavasi. i Praise GOD that in some small way I can help be a voice for those suffering, & that light is being shed on this horrible injustice. I pray that justice will prevail for Jarnail Kaur & the First Nation people of India, & Soon! <3

Before my set a young middle school poet/rapper that was in my Poetry Workshops in May/June came to the NYC POETRY FESTIVAL with his parent’s & brother had the opportunity to recite a short poem before I performed. His name is KABIR MATHUR @kabir_mathur248 , & he is a young INDIA AMERICAN POET that shows great promise! 🙂

As fate would have it directly following this I read a new poem I had written for the suffering INDIA Indigenous people ADAVASI for the first time publicly! A 100% Electricity moment for me! 🙂! Then i kicked in to my performance poetry set! Felt like in the moment punk jazz!
