Teams Are Preparing for Upcoming SLAM!

Poetry Slam! is around the corner and America SCORES kids are getting ready by adding details to their poetry, creating actions that emphasize their words, and practicing in front of peers and coaches.

Here is a glimpse of what's to come from Munroe boys:

          It looks like a shadow walking down the street

          It sounds like a bat flapping his wings in the dark, spooky sky

          It tasted like a tortilla burned up in my stove

          It smelled like my stinky, smelly, nasty shoe

          It feels like spikey, gelled hair

          What color is it?     (black)

          It looks like a shiny FIFA trophy

          It sounds like a dangerous and fast cheetah

          It tastes like a delicious homemade tamale

          It feels like a soft Cocker Spaniel puppy

          It smells like a shiny treasure

          What color is it?      (gold)

We're sure you'll enjoy the other two colors they've written about!  

Make sure not to miss the 12th Annual Poetry Slam! at Abraham Lincoln High School November 8th from 5:30 to 7:30PM.  Come hear all the Denver poet-athletes perform their original works from the fall season and bring your money for an America SCORES Denver t-shirt!
