Overview
The clash of the prose, the jostling of imagery and emotive rhyme. Whatever their weapon of choice, the finest poets and wordsmiths of Queensland are ready to engage in their most crucial battle yet: the State Final of the Australian Poetry Slam 2013.
They have engaged in wars of words for some months, and many have boiled down to few; 18 contestants are readying their syntactical swords in the name of prizes, honour and the opportunity to compete for the national title in Sydney.
If the viewing stakes weren’t already high enough, Go Violets and Luka Lesson will provide musical accompaniment as the evening’s special guests.
To the best slammer goes the spoils.
