We plan to bring in a USA based poet who is renowned and respected in the poetry industry worldwide.

3. The season 9 of War Of Words:
This is our annual spoken word poetry competition which runs over 3 to 6 months i.e. from registration of poets to submission of video entry and then the actual stage performance.
