I went down the rabbit hole of slam poetry of YouTube and you can't really do that without coming across Neil Hilborn.

You can buy the Button Poetry e-book with some of Hilborn's poems and more from equally talented authors here and you should because there is not one poem in there that doesn't do its best to set your mind on fire.
