The finals were pretty sweet. High gas prices seemed to keep some folks away, but the head-to-head match between Mike Moriarty and Matt Ernst made the people who did show up glad of it.  Mike Moriarty took the title of Ann Arbor Poetry Slam champion when the battle of the beards was over.

We have a fantastic feature this Tuesday, Cassie Poe! Her bio from poetryslam.com

Cassie Poe is a Detroit artist and mom. Her first love was fiction writing until she met poetry in 99′ and started a lurid affair. This hot and steamy involvement led to an illicit relationship with Slam that is still ongoing. Currently, she serves as the mistress/Slammaster for the Detroit Byte This Slam, and was just elected to the Executive Council or Poetry Slam, Inc. Her other passions include interior decorating and landscaping though she loves small animals and longs for world peace.

Tuesday night the start again of our regular season of Slams. Sign-up is first-come, first served, so get there early!

Coming in July – Tom Noy from Cleveland!
