This type of poetry competition emerged in the U.S. by the end of the 20th century and it increased its popularity in the following years expanding to different countries all around the world. Additionally, competitors usually prepare the poetry in advance and can use poems of almost any style, genre or rhythm patterns and use different poetic or literary devices including changes in the tone of voice. Thus, the sentence that describes a characteristic of a poetry slam is "Poetry is judged by audience members" as the judges are selected from the audience or the general audience decides which participant poems are the best.
