Facebook's 'People You May Know' is often just a conglomeration of porn stars and shirtless folks who think they're a porn star - and occasionally Shelley Long (true story). But occasionally Facebook's algorithm is far more pointedly insidious.

Such was the case for spoken word poet Kevin Kantor, who found himself staring at a picture of his rapist, a feeling he described as "the closest to a crime scene I've ever been."

On stage in front of thousands for this year's College Unions Poetry Slam Invitational, Kantor delivered his gut-wrenching prose in a cathartic act of bravery.

"Every day I write a poem titled 'Tomorrow,' it is a hand-written list of the people I know that love me. And I make sure to put my own name at the top."
