AUSTIN POETRY SLAM NEEDS FIVE BUCKS FROM 2007 PEOPLE:

The National Poetry Slam is coming to Austin, Texas again this year. 400 poets will descend on our town like a bunch of fire breathing, beret-wearing dragons.

We can’t put on this show without you. Lend us your ears and give us your cash. We need you. Poets don’t slay mendacity and reveal the beauty of a quiet pond because they’re looking to get rich and forget you. We choose to dance with who brung us.

Philanthropy-- It’s not just a word spoken at a ribbon cutting ceremony for the ladies who lunch. It’s about supporting people and events that have something to offer, that give something to the community, that have
something to say.

We’re looking for your help. A small donation. Five bucks. One fancy beer, the “M” in your next “MOM” tattoo. Five bucks. The price of a yummy tapas. We need you.

We’re passing the hat. Paypal five bucks to nps2007@gmail.com. See www.nps2007.com for more info.

Let’s do this thing together.

Yours truly,

The Austin Slam Family
