Poetry Out Loud

Gabby Humlicek won the Poetry Out Loud competition at the Iowa School for the Deaf last night. It was her first competition. Humlicek, and second place winner Auna Ferguson, will move on to compete in the state competition against hearing students March 3. The winner of that competition will get $200 and a trip to Washington, DC to compete in the national title. Humlicek's winning performance was Jabberwocky, a Lewis Carroll poem filled with nonsense words.
