		<itunes:summary>Welcome to True Poetics. True Poetics is a weekly podcast devoted to poetry, spoken word and the people who love it. Each episode we feature a poet, find out more about them, and give them an opportunity to share some of their works with you.

This week we are talking with a poet from New York City. As a spoken word artist, vocalist, comic, actor, producer and director, our poet has entertained the masses at coffee houses, college campuses, on radio, and stages across our country. Our poet is also a community activist and has committed his life to educating audiences about the global epidemic of HIV/AIDS. Tonight I'm excited to welcome Leslie Taylor AKA ButtaFLYSoul to True Poetics.
