On this podcast all about poetry and creativity I have been joined by the wonderful Daniel 'DK' Kay. A force for good in the poetry community, spreading messages of love, hope and inclusion through his poetry.
DK isn't your average artist. With a unique blend of freestyle poet, music production, and cerebral palsy, he has managed to captivate audiences across the country. But it's not just his talent that sets him apart - DK is an asexual, vegan activist who uses his platform to fight for cannabis reform, animal rights, and equality. And when he's not making music or championing social justice causes, he's hitting the field with Villa Rockets. As one of only eight players to have never missed a season, DK brings that same dedication to coaching the second team, Villa Rockets Lions. But that's not all - DK founded AccessAbility Arts, a group that works to make the arts accessible to everyone, regardless of ability or background. And with a commitment to inclusivity and diversity, DK seeks to lift up those who have been marginalised and give them a voice through his performances and workshops.

Prompt for listeners: Write a persona poem from the perspective of a tree that has witnessed the struggle for equality throughout human history, reflecting on the progress made and obstacles that remain.
