		<description><![CDATA[Well, here&#039;s what I did: I went to an open mic night, with the intent of observing first. I ended up reading my first night. It&#039;s pretty much up to you, but I can tell you that open mics would probably be a good place to start. As I said, you can go and watch for a few nights, and then jump in and sign up. Or you can be a crazy fool like me and read the first night. :) It&#039;s up to you.

Have you ever read &quot;The Idiot&#039;s Guide to Slam Poetry&quot;? There is some good information about open-micing and slamming. It&#039;s written by the slampappy himself, Marc &quot;So What&quot; Smith. More info from Worldcat.org here on this book: http://www.worldcat.org/search?qt=worldcat_org_bks&amp;q=9781592572465&amp;fq=dt%3Abks

Thanks, and good luck,

		<description><![CDATA[No problem. I would say that anyone who desires to express him or herself through writing poetry is poet, so by that definition, you are indeed a poet, and what I saw was poetry, and very good poetry at that. Keep writing. :)

		<description><![CDATA[Thank you so much for the comment on my poem.  I don&#039;t consider myself a poet at all, sometimes I just write what&#039;s on my mind.  Coming from you, the compliment really means so much.  Thanks again and have a great weekend!]]></description>
