Why: Cost of Meetup Subscription
We are the hippest cats alive today: we dig poetry in coffee bars, byobs, speak easys, night clubs, lounges, and saloons. We have come out of our shell. We have left the normal club and bar scene behind. We want to experience poetry events as fans and enthusiasts. Join us: the 21st century intelligentsia that have discovered an old art form is new again, and will never die. The oldest and hippest art form known to mankind since the dawn of time is back in cultural fashion: the art form of performance poetry.

“I am a poet in captivity to the dreams of what others think I should be. My creativity is about to bust through my skin and I need to release what God has created me to be or I shall never know peace”
