@haferness3 A poetry slam is just a competition where people get up and recite poetry to an audience. Usually you recite your own poetry, but some of the ones I compete in tend to allow recitation of other's poetry too. The competitions I partake in are usually are placed there and then, as in first, second, third and highly commended medals are given out at the end of the competition. However, some are just preliminary competitions that allow you to progress from local, to state, to country and there's even international competitions! It's loads of fun and a great experience. Hahaha. Yeah, well I'm going to look through them again and pick out the ones I really like. I let you know and you just tell me if I've got permission to use them!
Thanks. <3
