I participated in poetry slams before I got into stage comedy. Didn't usually write anything before hitting the limelight; just had a general idea and some memorized points to jump between. My buddy, Gris, recorded this one for me so I could write it down later because it got a pretty good response the first couple times I performed it :) Funny thing: it was different every time. I love that about some spoken word/improv poetry. It's always evolving.
