Bardflys collect collective crown for final Sydney poetry slam

Ethan Switch - Thursday, December 8, 2005 - 23:43:29 - print it raw

With few suffering blindness from a constant high blow flash bulb, an audience close to one hundred, or less dependent upon accounting schema, were witness to the Sydney Poetry Slam finals of 2005.

Holding court in the Mitchell Wing of the State Library of NSW, rhyme and performance of a night's festivities. Service of Dr Pepper non-existent, the doling of free alcohol rode against limits of two blue bands.

Combatant forces of Token Word and One Word warmed their hands behind their backs at the night's close. The crew from the Speakeasy heat wearing the poetry crowns. Glory of the team section, the Bardflys with members Ben Ezra, Alana Hicks and Nick Sykes.

Smothering his head as the overall winner in the individual performance, and scoring his eyes in American Crew hair product, Bravo Child (of the reigning Word Wrestling Federation title holders, House-Cat Havoc).

Patrick Alexander and Nick Sykes collecting second and third place honours respectively.

Articles and all that more wordy stuff

Where in Kentucky - Mammoth Cave National Park: Monstrously, and seemingly neverending, sitting under the home ground of Colonel Sanders, the world's largest cave system. Yucatan comes nowhere close. Not even Cocklebiddy poses a threat. No comparison. Small holes looking up at a big fat long one. Sadly, with possible age and lack of food, no minotaurs to be found within the lime walls.
Homebrew Diary - Wheatbeer of misery: If what can turn a foul mood around becomes the harbinger of the foul mood, what happens next? Turn it into a learning experience. And when that learning curve makes a late break over the plate, you'd better start to swing away.
Homebrew Diary - Blackrock IPA + Hops: It doesn't take a big man to admit that he drinks. It takes a big man to get wasted and perform impromptu sermons naked from a balcony; raving upon the ravages of the insanity of stata bylaws and noisy offspring in adjoining arpartments...
