A Poets For Dinner Founder Exclusive!!!!



Past Featured Artists

Poets For Dinner likes to pride itself on the unique format and treatment of it’s features. For example, at your average open mic; the feature is usually called in the middle or the end of the night. At Poets For Dinner, the feature is called to perform 3 times throughout the evening to mirror the courses one would receive if at an actual restaurant.

Each feature is asked to do a piece to open the night (appetizer), two in the middle (main course/entree) and one to close the evening (dessert). Every feature also gets the honor of picking the month’s menu/theme.

- Sumaiyah Yates, Aug. 2019


"A queen in the east requested my visit,
She enjoyed my performance and our connection was exquisite.
We both took a liking to feeding the people,
Because a full stomach helps with combating the evils.
In return for providing the verbal treats,
She would make me a meal fit for kings to eat. 
She would fill my cup and fill my plate
All I had to do was choose the food I ate.
For a second I was overwhelmed,
I fell into deep reflection.
So many times I didn't believe that what I ate mattered
But with her, it was a simple question.
All of those times laid shattered,
I realized that after all I had been through; 
I deserved to give her this menu.
So I replied to her with a little more ease,
I'll have fried chicken wings and you can sit that next to the baked mac n cheese.
By that plate you can place
A humble bowl,
of seafood gumbo.
So nice,
Over white rice.
Beside it place some cabbage but fry it,
I aint sparing no calories, I aint on no diet.
A little corn on the cob would really make my heart throb,
And some Garlic cheese bread would probably cause me to slob.
Some steamed shrimp would almost finish the job.
But the child inside calls for dessert to finish the show.
So I must go with peach cobbler a la mode."
-Louis Conphliction, Nov. 2017
