slam poetry

something i have gotten into is slam poetry. there is a "dive" bar out in downtown bryan [tx] that i go to called revolutions and sometimes perform. the even is held every other sunday. the event is called "Speak!". it is a way for local poets, musicians, artist to showcase their talents in an environment that is pure art. it is a great feeling.

here is an example of a slam poet:
