Poetry In Contest

an ancient sport
       a verbal duel
       of responsive verse
      syllables
             soliloquised
rhetorical
     reasonance 
          revealed
          in repartee
          of competing voices
          read aloud
               in rounds
improvised
       verbal confrontations
       become
            a contemporary
