poetry slam

A few weeks ago I began frequenting a local poetry reading. I am now quite a fan as it began to feel like going to church, in a good way!

People communing and spilling out their hearts out for the things they care about, mostly in very electric and beautiful ways, not always...but mostly.

Seems that most of my friends also intuite poems while sitting there, here is one that came to Sam last week:

















And then Aviv asked him if he knew any "big words" and I mentioned that it didn't seem to involve any lesbian sex, which many of the poems seem to focus on, so he wrote the entire poem again...with bigger words...and sex. It was pretty hilarious. [click on the image if the text is too small to read]
