KENOSHA ⏤ While music is often the focus of entertainment locally, poetry and prose still add heart and soul to the Kenosha scene.
Most often, a mix of different genres and styles of music rule the local open mics.
However, Kenosha is just as much a city of poets as it is a city of musicians.
Therefore, please listen to some of that local poetry in this #tbt clip below.
In the clip, Kori Davis performs some original poems on Aug. 20, 2019, at Kenosha Fusion.
