What is Spoken Word Poetry?

A broad designation for poetry intended for performance. 

Though some spoken word poetry may also be published on the page, the genre has its roots in oral traditions and performance. Spoken word can encompass or contain elements of rap, hip-hop, storytelling, theater, jazz, rock, blues, and folk music.
