I got an e-mail from Dave McGimpsey inviting me to come to the CBC Poetry Face-Off this Thursday.
He'll be competing with a number of Montreal poets in a grueling poetic battle-royal to determine who will continue onto the finals to become Canada's undisputed grand champion of poetry.
From what I hear, Dave promises to "cut taxes" and to maintain the belief that "all of life's problems are solved by the music of Kelly Clarkson." Hear hear, Dave!
The competition in Montreal is going to be fierce with poets like Susan Gillis and Jon Paul Fiorentino in the line-up.
So come out, brave the cold weather and cheer these valiant word warriors on.
