I had such a great time tonight at the second annual poetry slam. I was honored and humbled to be performing along-side so many great poets. I was gifted with the honor of winning "Best Poem in the under sixteen category" with my poem "The Hooves"! Along side me was the winner of the "Over Sixteen best original poem" who was awesome. He recited a poem to an urban beat about his grandmother who recently passed away. It was very touching and also amazing that he could remember such an emotional and lengthy work from memory alone. Here is us with the awesome MC who was just great.
Us together with our certificates!
And with the MC.
And my new Writer's Profile Picture for now at least.
Photos taken by my awesome dad who's work can be found here:

And remember... The words are already upon the page. All the writer must do is reveal them to the rest of the world.
