So You Want to Support NPS 2007?The National Poetry Slam is coming to Austin, Texas again this year. 350 poets will descend on our town like a bunch of fire breathing, beret wearing dragons.We can't put on this show without you. Lend us your ears and give us your cash. We need you. Poets don't slay mendacity and reveal the beauty of a quiet pond because they're looking to get rich and forget you. We choose to dance with who brung us. Philanthropy-- It's not just a word spoken at a ribbon cutting ceremony for the ladies who lunch. It's about supporting people and events that have something to offer, that give something to the community, that have something to say. We're looking for your help. A small donation. 5 bucks. One fancy beer, the "M" in your next "MOM" tattoo. 5 bucks. The price of a yummy tapas. We need you. Let's do this thing together. Yours truly, NPS Planning Committee 2007 |
