However, there is conflicting opinion on what the true cause of the price spike is, and when it really started.

Why Slam Poetry Shouldn’t Really be Called Poetry
When I first heard about slam poetry I was really taken by it. It was performative, non-conformist, and dynamic. However, the more I observed this genre the more I started to distinguish some very problematic traits that place these performances on a different end of the artistic scale: more of a stand-up (ish) contest than poetry.
Pink Sunglasses
An ice cream truck approached Yankee Stadium. It was the bottom of the ninth, two outs, full count, Yanks down by one.
The truck sounded the same few notes while not ten feet away, a purse snatcher plied his trade on the oldest-looking, whitest-haired, most wrinkled, bony-fingered, four-eyed woman, wearing the largest pink-framed sunglasses I ever saw.
I wondered if I should call 911 or walk away when her knee, aimed like her life depended on it, met the space below his baseball bat.
Her problem solved.
Meanwhile, the last Yankee standing, with the crowd cheering behind him, struck out.
