I’m hosting the SAN DIEGO POETRY SLAM Tonight!!!
The San Diego PoetrySLAM is a competition where poets present their work and get scored by 5 judges picked randomly from the audience.
This slam will be “Play Ground Style”
16 poets will be allowed to sign up, 1 captain will be chosen at random, the captain will pick 4 poets and that team will compete against the defending Playground Style Champions, Team Jerrica.
Those who don’t get selected will have the option of performing during the open mic.
If team Jerrica is missing more than 1 member, we will pick new teams
Come out and watch, cheer on your favorite poet or sign up to compete!
