This collection of over 300 poems spans the prolific literary output of poet Alan Scott MacDougall, who died playing tennis in Sacramento April 18, 1999. Included are never before published love poems, his struggles as a young intellectual to connect emotionally with others, art and politics during the Vietnam era, work and travel in the United States, the Las Vegas scene, and ends with an all-time favorite of audiences, "The Problem Created by Intelligence." A traveling poet, Al MacDougall gave electrifying performances all across the United States for nearly thirty years. His blending of poetry, life experience, plus his gift for foreign language translation (nine languages) set him apart and made his contribution to the Poetry Slam community totally unique. A teacher of mathematics, history and languages, his achievements are all the more remarkable in view of his lifelong struggle to overcome paranoia and the isolation created by genius. Poetry Grand Slam Finale casts exciting new light on the hidden world from which Alan MacDougall reached out to share the creative force of language and emotion.
