Dawn Gabriel (mom_star) was great at the Hut tonight…on a night which I thought was over all pretty staid and frankly, a bit lackluster. Only a handful of poems struck me as remotely interesting.
News about the 3×5 bout structure at the NPS this year makes me VERY glad I’m done. Can’t imagine how this will play out; shocked that they didn’t wait a year to implement it, what with everyone’s slams being structured to pick a four person team and almost all the slam season done. But, hey…who cares, right? The more teams, the merrier. Of course, we’ll see if that holds true as rumors seem to be predicting more than a few teams will be not going to St. Louis.
The fact that the quality of the poetry has been declining for years is all beside the point, I guess.
Which leads me to another point: as of midnight, my PSI membership expired, and for the first time in years, I’m not renewing it.
Kiss today goodbye…

Hi Tony.
Good to see you (so-to-speack).
Good to hear from you.
I was actually thinking of coming by
for the Java–haven’t been by for
years. I haven’t been feeling well
physically, and I’ve developed these
incredible sinking lines in my fore-
head that need Bo-tox, but my budget
says,”Olay.” This and my organic
Cheetos addiction, (this is not a
weight loss program) and cosmic shyness
really cramp my style. And most of
all Sunday nights are for Tony Soprano.
I’d have to get there at seven and
leave by eight. I may do it when the
weather is better. Uhmmm. Read the
zero-point-zero stuff. You are really
a head with a heart. The talent out
there really flips me out sometimes–
unfortunately another reason to stay in
my shell. As I said good
to see you, again.

um…
What exactly is a 3×5 bout structure?
And why does it sound lame?
