Tonight was the night I participated in my first poetry SLAM contest. The contest was put on by Slam MN at Kiearn’s Irish Pub in Minneapolis, MN. Out of the 2 rounds, I won 1st runner up. Here is the first and highest scoring poem of mine that I read tonight.
an eternal ethereal plethora amore
betwixt ego amidst imperial decor
wisdom within whispers rapt metaphors a lore
such secrets so simple locked behind doors
where exists a force which denies us with lies
they try ever so hard to let the truth die
for those who aren’t closed as per the 3rd eye
see through the blinds and though their disguise
we see all of us cry from the stars in the sky
for stars sing when we die and they sing us alive
so as i look down from above all i see is the love
all i see is the beauty which feels more than enough

How many peeps you beat with this?
-Slam contest huh. Never heard of it; if im still in town im gonna come check it out on the 11th.
Ok you caught me. There wasn’t that many people and so there was only 2 rounds instead of the usual 3. 2 of the poets left after the first round, probably because they were too drunk and annoying. Come check it out next time. They also have open mic there on Thursday’s maybe. I don’t remeber. Check out thier website linked to the post.
