#NaPoWriMo 2021 - Haiku of Life (2007 and 2008)

 







2007


Slipping on stage

my 1st poetry performance

was almost my last.


(Although I had done a few minor readings beforehand, my first major poetry readings was at Turton Towers near Blackburn where I missed my step getting onto stage and was so embarrassed I nearly didn’t do it again)


2008


Twisted my ankle

helping to co-run my first

first open mic night.


(I broke into my the poetry scene at the start of 2008 with Gary and Amanda and at the end of that year we set up our first poetry open mic night, twisting my ankle in the process)
