Bum Rush the Page is a groundbreaking collection, capturing the best new work from the poets who have brought fresh energy, life, and relevance to American poetry. “Here is a democratic orchestration of voices and visions, poets of all ages, ethnicities, and geographic locations coming together to create a dialogue and to jam–not slam. This is our mouth on paper, our hearts on our sleeves, our refusal to shut up and swallow our silence. These poems are tough, honest, astute, perceptive, lyrical, blunt, sad, funny, heartbreaking, and true. They shout, they curse, they whisper, and sing. But most of all, they tell it like it is.” –Tony Medina, from the Introduction… (meer)

This is truly my first poetry book that I have ever read from cover to cover. Once past that, I must say that this is a GREAT book. It is Def Jam poetry, and the entire time that I am reading it, I am picturing a slam poet (I am so lucky to have seen a few in college, and on TV) perform it.

Some of these poems truly were awe-inspiring, and really make me stop and think. (And, of course, some are not as intellectual...) But what I love about Def Jam/Slam poetry is that it covers topics that mean something to every day people--and then shoves it down their throats. Don't get me wrong, Emily will always hold a special place in my heart, but she is not as easily understood as this type of poetry.

I hope that I found some poems my students will enjoy, too! ( )
