I travelled to Burlington this evening to see the finals for the BSP. There, I supported my good friend, Dan Murray, in his quest to make the Burlington Slam Team for the Canadian Spoken Word Festival.
Dan read well, good poems. He made the team as an alternate and I really hope he decides to go to Toronto and hopefully gets a chance to compete.
Really digging these slams, but if it's one thing this style of poetry needs, it's a badass Bukowski figure speaking in plain language and unafraid to show you his balls resting upon his heart. Maybe that figure will emerge someday soon...
