Please don't take my Air Jordans

Title:: Please don't take my Air Jordans
Speaker:: Lemon Andersen
Description:: Would you kill for a pair of Air Jordans? Lemon Andersen spins a tale of someone who did, reciting a poem by Reg E. Gaines. These verses taught Lemon that poetry could be about more than self-expression, and could sound like music when given rhythm and infused with the grit of the New York streets around him.
