Koha entry.

It's getting colder. The days are shorter and Wellington's wind is more powerful than ever. It's time for our second Windswept Slam!

Poets! Slamming details below. Poetry lovers, come along and listen to the sound of something other than your own breathing. All welcome. It's going to be a magical night.

Poets. You know you want to slam. So sign up using this email kiaora@motifpoetry.co.nz - get in quick there are only 8 spots. Make sure you arrive before the slam starts because the order is drawn at random because fairness (come before 7 pm sharp guys).

This is a 3 round slam so bring 3 poems (max 3 min each).
- Do bring poems that YOU have written
- Do feel free to read them from a phone or paper
- Don't use props or costumes
- Don't use backing music or dancers
-Don't be a dick. Hate speech isn't cool, let's spread love.

The winners of each slam will go through to the Wellington Regional Final at the National Library of New Zealand at the end of October. Although poems are scored, no one cares about those silly number things anyway. It's all just an elaborate excuse to share more poetry.

Windswept Slams are supported by the Wellington Creative Community Scheme. Cheers guys!
