   About SLAMicide
SLAMicide is THE official track to becoming a part of the Baltimore Slam Team that competes at the National Poetry Slam annually.

We also hold open mics and have regularly scheduled features from across the globe.

Hosted by the Chris August, Granma Dave, Janna Tanner and Chris Wilson, SLAMicide offers witty banter, crazy antics, good fun and genuine affection for this thing we call poetry slam.

In addition, SLAMicide offers a house beatboxer (Shodekeh) who accompanies our features and open micers on request (dude is amazing).

So come out! Sign up for the open mic or the slam! Bring your words, other people's words (we fully endorse OPP - just give credit to the original author) and bring your friends. See you there!

If you are a touring poet trying to book a feature, please send an email to slammaster@slamicide.com and the process will begin there.

Hey

I just wanted to let you know I have reached 2000 friends ....so let this be a thank you for being one of them and doing what all good friends do by NOT caring.

anyway, Ive been really into slam poetry and have been performing around NYC at such events.

Heres a sample of something i might do at a slam:

" i then go into this coffeehouse and strike up a conversation
with this other writer about why men always have to do the hunting for women.
he takes out this half empty bottle and this half empty cup and says
"the bottle is the man and the cup is the woman
and the liquid inside is their hearts.
now their hearts are not gonna be complete until they find each other"
and then he asks me how i would go about doing that.

so i told him that i would pour the bottle into the cup.
he says "why not the other way around?"
and i reply "less chance of a spill" and he says "exactly......
see when a woman pours her heart into a man it just gets broken
and most of it spills on the floor, but when a man pours his heart
into the woman, the woman accepts ALL of him."

stay tuned to my blog section for more.
