Manifesto

We, the VerseMobbers, will:

Bring joy and delight to the unsuspecting public by the power of our written and spoken word.

Create thought-provoking and memorable demonstrations of the power of connecting with people personally through poetry.

Reintroduce real people to the joys of real poetry.

Create awesome and interesting ways to make the above happen.

Promote spoken word and poetry for the edification of all.

Try not to use phrases like ‘conceptual art’ or other nonsense terms too much. Poetry and art should be fun and accessible, not deliberately annoying..

Do cool stuff like giving away free signed and printed poems to people. Think free hugs with a Gutenberg twist.

Try to make the world better, even if we can only do that a little bit. With poems and stuff.
