Haiku Deathmatch was a success! Even with only 6 competitors (and as a result, some confused bracketing) everyone present was treated to a crazy night of some hilarious and insightful haiku. There were some great matchups, and Breon Jenay took the championship knocking out her competitors at a dizzying rate. Expect these to be happening again in the future, so don’t hesitate to start prepping your seventeen syllable sweetnesses for the next slaughter!

Look out, and prep for, our next theme slam on February 16 – The Masquerade Slam featuring Christian Drake! This will feature traditional slam scoring, and all pieces performed must be PERSONA POEMS! That means every poem is the performer writing (and performing) as someone or something else.
