Today, I want to celebrate the talents of one of Doc’s Castle Media contributors. Too bad I had to stumble across this video literally years later. Otherwise, I’d post it a long time ago. But it’s better late than never most people will say.
Writer and creative consultant of Doc’s Castle, LLC Kendyl Walker wrote a mini skit while away at Indiana University of Pennsylvania for college. Kendyl’s Poetry Corner aired on the college’s cable network on comedy show Sketch-o-phrenia.
This isn’t the only time a skit written by Kendyl has been featured on the cable show. Another skit, “Trouble on Valentine’s Day,” was previously featured on Doc’s Castle Media. The show followed a boy who struggles to find a gift for his girlfriend for valentine’s day.
In Kendyl’s Poetry Corner, the segment makes a parody of the way poets recite poetry. As mainstream media modes a stereotype most people can pick up of a poet, we can find humor in Kendyl making fun of those same stereotypical constructs. This isn’t your typical Poetic Justice. Better yet, her character can come close to comparing to Dashiki from Don’t Be A Menace To South Central While Drinking Your Juice in the Hood.

Kendyl Walker is also the author of Doc’s Castle Media horror short story series Hide and I’ll Seek, a story of a young boy and girls quest to finding out who’s haunting and torturing the kids at their high school during lockdown.
Do you personally know a poet who’s similar to Kendyl? Leave your comments below.
