and The Big Read for Westchester

Published: February 13, 2009
Competitive poetry may sound contradictory, until you find yourself at a Poetry SLAM. After an exhilarating first hour by National Slam Team member “Eco-Billy,” Christian Drake, on Wed., Feb. 4, at White Plains Library, local registrants spoke their own poetry in a strictly formatted program. Each of the eight poets had a maximum of three minutes to perform an original work and received scores on a scale of 0 to 10 by five judges appointed by co-host and local slam master Eric ZORK Alan, taking both words and performance into account. Highest and lowest scores were tossed and the top five scorers advanced to the final round.
