Biography of Kris Smith
I'm a young, dedicated, spoken word poet/performance artist. I've been into creative writing and poetry since I was a youth, but it was like an off and on thing. I poetry do readings at several venues in Houston like Taft Street Coffee(2115 Taft) , Notsuoh(314 Main St) , Te House of Tea(1927 Fairview Dr) and other spots. I've published in The Harbinger Asylum, Houston Press, collaborted with the underground performance art collective Continuum and I'm currently curating my own performance art/poetry collective called The Manifesto Form. If you're in the Houston and wanna be apart of the group, e-mail me at krissmith1983@hotmail.com or go to the group which is: https: //www.facebook.com/groups/manifestoform.
