In Trigger Warning, her award-winning poem, Portland poet Jordan Wolmut dissects the concept of a slam poetry competition while taking part in one. In the poem, Benson High School senior Wolmut recounts the traumas she’s experienced in her life—childhood abuse, and the death of her mother at 14—while weaving in observations about how slam poetry sometimes requires poets to retraumatize themselves on the stage. In Trigger Warning, she calls this “Reliving every pain possible to get all 10s” from the judges. “Don’t you see me breaking?” the poem continues. “Don’t you see me shaking? The judges love that shit.”
