Thank you to the WONDERFUL Rob Reeves for hosting, and the HILARIOUS Chuck the Poet for headlining!

Please share photos in the comments below as we managed to get NONE 🙈😆

Run Your Tongue was the original Kettering open mic that Rob now runs on the FIRST Thursday of the month in Leicester - if you need more inspo between our next open mic, get over that way to indulge 😌

Thank you everyone for last night 💜 here’s the stories and poems we created! See you next month, 13th Dec 😎

Life is a limerick,
Lines to keep within
With a stupid punchline
Boo to тиску (tes-koo), f**k resistance
We need something with substance
Let’s cause a kerfuffle.
Let’s surf the sand
And bungy into a soup of salubrious spangles
Let’s wrap peace in a scrunchie
And wear it on our whatsumacallit
Let’s overdose on outrageous
Supercalifragicalistic expilatadotious
Tear through turbidity
Life is messy and mucky
Joyfully indecisive
And lucky
Each meeting with you
Sings a jazzaraquet in my soul
And as your rhymes overcome the lines
I am whole.

DATE FOR NEXT OPEN MIC

We discussed about doing the first Wednesday of the month but this has in fact been a slight issue, so we are proposing…
THE SECOND WEDNESDAY OF THE MONTH!

Can people comment and confirm with thumbs up if this sounds okay, and if so we will get the event created for the upcoming dates 🙏😍
