What is a Poetry Slam?

A Poetry Slam is a writing and performance competition where poets perform their own material without the aid of props, costumes, or musical accompaniment outside of sounds they can make with their own body. They are then scored by 5 judges picked randomly from the audience. The top and bottom scores are dropped and, depending on the round format, some poets advance to perform again to determine a winner who will get cash and prizes!
