Ever since I got outa me pram
I\'ve been ritin\' poems that SLAM !
Where do they come from my Teacher said ?
I replied Man they just come outa me \'ed
I never write long poems ~ like the
Mega cantos of Old Ezra Pound
I get to the point ~ not outa joint
Me poems don\'t just go round an\' round !
Me poems are rhythmic ~ simple ~ recitable
And when they\'re pasionate I get quite excitable
When I perform them ~ I sing in the shower
And if you could see me ~ you\'d know I have THE POWER !
Thanks for visiting ~ comments welcome ~ SLAM love to all ~ BRIAN
This poem was inspired by MARISA GREEN whose first poem was a SLAM !
A SLAM POEM should be recited and is then given marks outa TEN.
The key elements of a SLAM POEM are: Original ~ Less than 3 minutes ~
Simple recitable rhythmic passionate AND it must have POWER !
