Приєднався 14 січ 2024
This is the Poetry Slam Archive. Think of it as a museum of the early years of Poetry Slam as moved and shaped by Poetry Slam, Inc. Many of the best and worst poems of the times are recorded here, as well as several "Historical" notations about practices and recollections of slam-related artifacts of the day. Enjoy!

Damn the nostalgia❤
Wow
I love this! So powerful
tell ur God that my God is looking for him❤❤❤❤❤
It touched my heart to see this is from four months ago. I get it Rudy. Not in the way that you mean, but I’ve listened for so long so now it means something to me too. Thanks for being amazing.
Ik as soon as she took stance
This was recorded later with music and epic harmonica beatboxing on the track 'Hell of a Hotel of Harm' from his album 'Magic Hour Sailor Songs' - so great to see this footage, thank you for sharing :)
Incredible. I'm a huge fan of Rachel's and I've never heard/seen this one. Thank you for uploading these!
Holy shit, what a performance! Just FYI, this is her poem "Lie Down Beside You" which also appears as a song on Ptolemaic Complex. Incredible piece. Incredible poet.
This is not the title. Whoever is doing this is besmirching the memory of one of the best who ever did it. You don't own this. This was Shannon Leigh's before the cave diving accident.
I have no intent to besmirch anything. This is a project designed to keep alive those moments from so long ago. Especially those poets the Slam community has lost along the way. What do you think the title is? I'd be happy to correct the record.
❤❤❤❤❤
Whoa
I never thought I’d see this particular performance again. I’ve looked for decades. Thank you.
❤❤❤❤❤
❤❤❤
FYI - they went by Rushelle then but go by Rush now.
Thanks, fixed.
"Who runs bartertown?"
Some of my greatest work.
Nice tits
Hey, I was there, too! Mike Swinkey, Erica DeWeese, Lane Martin, Jim Dwyer, and John Booth
Thanks. I knew I wasn't right about some of it. I need the collective memory to make this stuff accurate and true!
@@PoetrySlamArchive I've got your back when I can!
Whoa!!!!!!❤🎉
Just so y'all know, the title of this poem is "Dive" :)
Thank you. Changed. FYI any time you have information on any poem that is not listed, feel free to share it here so that we can improve this experience for everyone.
❤️
Myra!!!!
I loooooove this ❤❤❤❤
Wowwwwwwww
I was there for that performance. It was an awesome moment in my life.
Unknown poet is Babu, Team Los Feliz
Thanks for the assist. Fixed.
That's John Akpata, not nth digri
Thanks, I made the change. Could that have been a stage name at the time or have I messed up some other poet too?
@@PoetrySlamArchive i think two names got switched. Nth Digri is another foundational poet from Ottawa.
Unknown poet is Rob Sturma aka Ratpack Slim
and the poem is named "Angels"!
Of course it is! hand to forehead

OMG THAT WAS POWERFUL
What a bunch of insufferable cringey whiney. These people think they are so profound. It’s just ick
The deliveryyyyyy❤❤
Over two decades and this is still relevant.
Yes!!!!
It's an early version of "Here am I", super cool :)
Thank you. Changes made.
The first one is clever! 😆
WOMEN DESEVE CHOICE
Suzy la Follette and Cass Hodges. Team FlagSlam, out of Flagstaff, Arizona.

Confirmed this is called "Beauty Commandos" with Cheryl
Got it. Changed it. Thanks.

Somebody throw them some Totinos pizza rolls, quick!
👏🏿👏🏿
Laura _________? It sounds like Peace County.
I know. I'd rather put UNKNOWN than to guess and get it wrong. Thanks.
Gemineye a.k.a. Christopher Andrew, Newark, NJ
Cheryl Maddalena, Psy.D., Team Boise
Thank you, would she have been on team Montclair, Berkeley or Seattle? Those were the unknown teams in this bout. Thanks for the input. It helps a lot!
@@PoetrySlamArchive I believe Seattle. I think she moved to Boise later.
@@foxthepoet Changed. Thank you.
@@foxthepoet I just dug deep and found she was on the Berkeley team! Yea!
@@PoetrySlamArchive oh, my error then.
