I went to the Say the Word poetry slam last night and heard some wonderful work. Some things really spoke to me and I left there with my head lost in thought… so lost I walked out without paying for two drinks.

I’m not a poet, but I enjoy participating and it benefits my writing. I urge serious writers to go to things like this, if you have the opportunity, and watch your work get even better. If you don’t have the opportunity, create it.
I shared a few things last night, one of which was this haiku…
