open mic night

Alex and I went to the lumen the other night.  I was surprise don how many people were in attendance.  It was also cool how Mr. Reed noticed that we were there and the waved to us.  At some point he was try to encourage us to go on stage and read something but we had not come prepared with anything to read aloud.  I know that I personally could have tried improv. but would most likely have made a fool of myself.  The people who did read were very talented and their pieces took me aback.  I can only write certain types of poem or pros yet my peers were writing things I have only dreamed of writing, things that never flowed from my tongue with ease.  The faculty and student did an amazing job with the lumen magazine.
