The slam will be on Friday, so what you need to do is choose the twelve poems you feel will represent your team the best--and divide that into three groups of four poems. Mix your poems up a bit, so each one does not sound the same. Vary who is the speaker. You do not "have to" recite your own poems--but be sure you "know" your poems well and it sounds like a recitation not a reading. Be sure to look at the crowd--and look like you a re having fun and are engaged in the most important task in your life.
