Open Mic Night 11/13: MC Bomani Armah and "The Rules of the Stage"
Bomani got things started Tuesday night... check it:
Time & cleverness: "You get two pieces or five minutes, whatever happens first, all right? If you're clever enough to do haikus, you're clever enough to know when to stop."
Pay respect to Langston Hughes: "The other thing is we ask that you read a piece by Langston Hughes. So just pick it up, randomly open it. The shorter poems are in the front. Read whatever. Randomly open it, and read whatever poem you open to. Make sure to give Langston Hughes some credit for paving the way for so many poets."
