Facebook gives warning that poetry based madness and mayhem is, regular as the calendar, about to return to Civic.

What can we say?

IT IS BAD!SLAM!NO!BISCUIT! TIME

Which means you get an audience a microphone five judges two MCs a MASTER OF CONFLICT a Score Adder a stage a pub with alcohol two minutes AND THE CHANCE TO IGNORE PUNCTUATION!

FOR PRIZES!

Now in the past BAD!SLAM!NO!BISCUIT! has attempted to subtly woo its audiences

Like a Canadian poet creatively waving arms about while crying
Or a United Statesian poet hitting the same note over and over and over and over and over
Or an Austrian poet in a stupid hat
Or an Australian

BUT THIS TIME WE HAVE THROWN SUBTLETY OUT THE WINDOW:
CYA sub
tle
ty
(SPLATT!)
TO BRING YOU THE LATEST EDITION OF BAD!SLAM!NO!BISCUIT!

Which means prizes

For poetry

PRIZES: FROM IMPACT COMICS MIND GAMES SMITHS ALTERNATIVE BOOKSTORE GORMAN HOUSE MARKETS OXFAM SHOP AND THE SIDE OF THE ROAD TO SOMEWHERE ELSE BUT THAT WE GOT TURNED ABOUT ON.

It is all about the prizes

And we have a feature act:

YOU MAY HAVE READ HER POETRY WHILE YOU SAT ON AN ACTION BUS
You may have heard her at the poetry night that calls itself a slam
YOU MAY HAVE HEARD HER AT BAD!SLAM!NO!BISCUIT! THAT IS A SLAM
Now hear her at BAD!SLAM!NO!BISCUIT! before she goes to the Australian Poetry Slam final, our feature act of poetry on stage:

MIRANDA LELLO

BAD!SLAM!NO!BISCUIT! 730pm at the Phoenix sign-up for words for judging for prizes for yelling sign-up

And remember no props no music original material and two minutes.
