The Saturday Night Slam Series in conjunction with the BYU English Society is proud to present this year's series at our new location The Wall. You, your roommates, your significant other, his or her little sister, that one guy with a mustache from your Tuesday 10 a.m. class and everyone else on the planet are invited to compete in this epic poetry slam for fame, glory, and phone numbers. All are
invited to come prepared with a three-minute poem to present to a panel of distinguished and randomly selected judges and a crowd of adoring fans. This is the event that your children's children will be asking you about for years to come. Don't know what a poetry slam is? That's fine, come anyway! But just to appease your curiosity, slams poets read or recite original work in less than 3 minutes. It's that simple! Write about whatever you want! Entry fee is one Haiku. A few people will be randomly selected to present during our intermission. Email [email protected] to sign up for your spot to compete or if you have any questions. Here are some links to some of our favorite poems as a starting point
