Bob: Dude, check out the board. Pure Magnetic Poetry.
Richard: "Girl...mouth...ed...plump...popsicle"?

def poetry

Created by Mos Def, it features poets and artist from around the country. It was telivised on HBO and can be bought on DVD. A poetry slam in this context, would be a smaller auditorium or play hall, but many poetry slams take place in cofee shops and other assorted small shops.

"Man did you see Jewel read her poem on last nights Def Poetry Jam? It made me so angry at everyone!"

Slam poetry

n. A style of spoken word poetry that is generally used in a competition, known as a poetry slam. Often, as with hip-hop music, the subject matter concerns urban life, crime, drugs, or other inner-city-related subjects. The difference in many cases, however, is that with slam poetry, the words/lyrics are more introspective and creative than your run-of-the-mill hit rap song. Also seems influenced by the Beat Poets, such as Allen Ginsberg and Jack Kerouac.

Beau Sia wrote a book of slam poetry called "A Night Without Armor II: The Revenge," which probably really pissed off Jewel Kilcher.
