General Discussion / Clean poetry needed

« on: January 03, 2011, 11:43:02 AM »

Ive got a unique opportunity to broadcast poetry to the military community. But is has to be relatively clean (No Cussing) but you can use all the metaphor you want. The poems should be 1 min -3 min in length. If you want some global air time  E-mail them to Ninjacrow1@excite.com.

The rules for Killeen slam

The season is from august  thru May . Killeen Poetry Slam is an open competition. Each slam will have a maximum of 12 poets. So anyone who wishes to compete should sign up as early as possible.

1) No poem can be repeated from slam to slam. The only time a poem can be repeated is in the Slam off Finals for the Slam Team.

 {Example: If a poet performs a poem called “kiss and Tell” in slam1, that poem cannot be repeated unless the poet makes it to the Finals for the slam team.}

2) Each poet must be a registered member of PSI to compete in NPS

3) In case of a tie poets will duel head to head. The judges will vote for a poet the poet with the most votes wins.
Poets competing in Killeen poetry slams will earn points toward a chance to compete for the Killeen Poetry Slam Team.

4 points…..1st Place
3 points.….2nd Place
2 point…….3rd Place
1 point…….4th place and all other poets who compete.

The top 12 poets with the most points will be invited to the Finals for the Slam Team. The top 4 poets will be on the  Killeen Poetry Slam team. The 5th paced poet is not guarantied  a spot on the slam team.

If a poet drops out or can not make NPS then the alternate poets will be chosen at the slammaster discretion.

 A additional coach can be chosen at the slam master discretion, but the coach dose not have to be a performing member of the Killeen poetry slam team.
