Founded in 2005, the Greater Phoenix Poetry Slam provides a unique
opportunity for poets to perform within the tremendous confines of The Paper
Heart, and win some money if they woo the audience.
Anyone, regardless of experience, is encouraged to come and read.
Each poem should be original work.
Competitors should have 3 poems ready to read, one poem in each of three
rotations, or rounds.
No props, costumes or nudity (g'heh).
Each performance has a 3 minute time limit.
5 judges are chosen and score each performance (1 to 10), with the lowest
and highest score for each performance being dropped.
