Re-Genre to Re-Nightmare?

So I've gotten it into my head that I am going to do a poetry slam.

Don't ask me where the idea came from. If I had to guess, it probably came from the part of my brain that is a little out-of-touch with reality. I only know the tiniest bit about poetry slams, and I really have no desire to preform my assignment in front of the class. However, every time I try to start a different genre my brain shuts down and refuses to cooperate.

So, a poetry slam it is.

I am a bit nervous to start this project, but I hope to have quite a bit of fun with it as well. Maybe I would be less anxious if I could just pause time and dedicate myself to this project.
But don't we all wish we could do that?

So, I am going to watch a bunch of poetry slams, write a passionate and angry poem, revise, trash it, write one again, and repeat the process until I think I can maybe, kind of do this thing. I look forward to sharing with all of you, and I cannot wait to see other projects as well. I think we are all going to have a bit of fun with this new assignment.
