At the Poetry Slam Wednesday night, the standard mixed bag. A few of note, one young poet reciting the laws of Hermes Trismegistos, curious, he's disappointing, "Secret Knowledge" isn't so secret if you're giving it all away during a slam.
Various other artists, various degrees of skills, judging all over the map and par for every other slam I've been to.
I try and escape at half time, but another artist takes the stage, older fellow, with guitar, he begins strumming and I'm immediately taken by it: The song, "Walk Like A Sasquatch", by local sculptor/artist Cameron Douglas.
And I so want to share it with you, the perfect blend of humor, irony, self-awareness, funny as hell and it got the crowd cheering, but - search as I may I can find only mention of it on the web, no performances. Which is a shame, this song, performance, it deserves a much wider audience.
Strange to think that even in this day and age some things must be experienced, and have no online corollary or presence to be shared.
Maybe that's his point? Or maybe search again and it will turn up in the future.
