I never real­ly got into poet­ry slam so far. I always sound­ed too unli­te­ra­ry to me. I am real­ly used to books and I cle­ar­ly attri­bu­te to mys­elf to have some kin­de of tas­te in lite­ra­tu­re, which is quite nor­mal being con­fron­ted with tho­se clas­sics. Sla­me poet­ry always see­med to igno­re tho­se achie­ve­ments, the audi­ence sel­dom gives the impres­son of being inte­res­ted in deeper things. But for many this kind of sub­jec­ti­ve distinc­tion is wrong. They refer to the sub­jec­ti­ve tas­te whe­r­ein ever­yo­ne is the one to judge.

Doing so we have to admit poet­ry slam on stage is amusing and it often igni­tes a spark to lis­ten­ers:

But there’s some dan­ger. Some­ti­mes that spark lits a fire and lis­ten­ers get to the point whe­re they want to inter­pret things out of their peri­phery in meta­pho­ri­cal terms.

Keep tho­se guys off the stage!
