One form of oral storytelling I can think of is poetry. I sometimes write poetry whenever I’m struggling with my mental health and want to vent in a way that my family can’t interfere with. Though I have read a few pieces out-loud in an after school program I am a part of. Describe and reflect on these experiences. These moments are usually very intense since they usually involve me letting my more sensitive emotions run rampant. These experiences are different in the sense that instead of relying on visual representations of the intended meaning, poetry uses vocalized presentations to get the message across I think.
