The twentieth National Poetry Slam, the Super Bowl of the Spoken Word, gets under way tonight at seven pm in West Palm Beach, Florida. In a sort of bus man’s holiday, the Orlando Sentinel’s Tod Caviness will blog the event live from West Palm.
Of local interest:
- el guante will be slamming for the St. Paul team,
- Madison has a team, and
- Milwaukee will be there too.
