Slam of the Year

New Free Verse -YEAR
 
We are all gathered here
For what it's worth
It won't hurt
Let's just call this Free Verse
Dust off some dirt
Convert in my converse
My mini blue jean skirt
Topless with no shirt
 
Rocking & rolling
Bodies crashing 
Everybody's growling
I am just laughing
While (TPS) keeps on scoring
They keep on graphing
Overrun by their staffing
Pulling and strolling
What they got cooking & dashing
 
Noising up this summer
Crashing up my hummer
Bashing heads like a hammer
In and out like a plumber
Pounding bodies of armor
Jot down like a drummer
Moshing up this poetry pit
P.D. Came and took the glamour
Then the Soup turned around 
Slammed us- out of a form
Chopping my grammar 
This new free verse bumming form

Good poem. And you used the word “nosh” it’s been years since I heard that word, my mom use to say it. Thanks for the comment on my poem “Deaths Door”. Yesterday at a bereavement group a woman had brought up about a friend had died from sleep apnea. I have sleep apnea and I wrote the poem today.

I go to readings here in NYC all the time but have only participated in one slam and that was enough. You sound like you had a pretty wild experience - although not a very positive one. Keep 'em coming! Yours Matthew Anish
