We Can Be Heroes

I, I will be king
And you, you will be queen
Though nothing
Will drive them away
We can be Heroes
Just for one day
We can be us. Just for one day

- David Bowie

'Vocab' aka DJ Morales was de-throned from CBC's annual slam poetry all-star face off. CBC Radio's Alan Neal relishes in the moment while wresting the crown from Vocab, the 2006 winner.

I always wanted to set this moment to music. Took me awhile, however. It's from the CBC Poetry Face Off from 2007. I did post select photos from the event here.
