A microphone stand on a stage alone is the seed of a thousand different blossoms. The verse slingers at the Poet House know this fact intimately, which is why they open up the stage on the first three Mondays of every month at the Vortex to summon the poetic muse at their every.Word Poetry open mic. See, this here’s a sacred format, and every.Word treats it as such, so you’re not gonna get any half-hearted limericks or so-so sonnets. Their format of blending curated performances with night-of sign-ups allows for creative spontaneity with just enough guidance to keep those fingers snapping. And don’t expect the same set of characters for every show as every.Word also offers curated Spanish language and queer-centric showcases.
