this time at the Weirdo Open Mic we've got Super Poet Paul Ryan. It is destined to be a kickass time.

3 poems or 5 minutes plus we gots the Poetry Pot Luck (it ain't about food folks, it's about poems.)

BYOB

POETRY POT LUCK.

EVERYONE CONTRIBUTES A POEM AND IT IS BLINDLY READ BY ANOTHER POET DURING THE OPEN MIC. IT IS AN ODD SHARING OF THE POETIC WEALTH THAT MAKES FOR INTERESTING INTERPRETATIONS.
