Begins to sound more than a fist fight.

Perhaps a Poetry Slam Bam, no thank you Ma'am.

Stephen I would have considered minus ten to be a weather report - maybe the penguin poem turned him a little chilly ;)

You pop your little penguin poem up here. We won't be so crass and unfeeling. :lol: :lol:

I may not always succeed in making a difference, but I will go to my grave knowing I at least tried.

The best of the ABPA slammers is Gregory North, who has made it to the finals over the last five years at the Sydney Opera House with Miles Merrill.
Carol Heuchan took out the award three years ago and was featured on WIN TV's Poetry Slam.
Unfortunately neither Greg nor Carol were selected for the Nationals this year. Pity.

Slammin is pretty easy what they can not hanlde is a bush poet who slams the slammers.


I was on a roll for the Qld finals made it three times in a row then they moved the heats to Stanthorpe and Barcaldine ??

Bit far to travel on a week night.

Trying to get on in Rockhampton this year so got my poem all ready.


Go the bush poets.
