The Seattle Poetry Slam’s biggest show of the year will feature World Poetry Slam Champion Joaquin Zihuatenejo as well as the top eight performance poets in Seattle competing for a spot on the 2010 Seattle National Poetry Slam Team. Each year, more than 500 poets from 50 cities converge at the National Poetry Slam Championships, this year in St. Paul, Minn. Since 2000, Seattle has had a strong presence at this competition, regularly placing among the top 10 teams; last year, Tara Hardy, Karen Finneyfrock, coach Daemond Arrindell, Greg Bee, and Maya Hersh brought home the second-place trophy for the “Group Piece” competition.
