I love found poems, and wish that I had spent more class time explaining/demonstrating because the products would have been stellar. I got some great ones, despite my lack of time, and decided that I wanted to share a few. So, here you are:
By G.L.
He's the nicest mean-looking dad in the world.
Hop into my babe mobile and I'll buy you a milkshake.
He's pale as chicken gravy and his eyes are dull as automobile primer.
Kids flock around my dad like he was created by Walt Disney.
Children trying to climb a glacier.
That would require a considerable outlay of energy.
There is nothing more than sound of heavy breathing.
Everything is relative.
Aquatic helmets.
Barbour the barbarian.
But with element, it is a soul stealer.
By B.L. (male)
Love is ...
being ready to take a bullet
two pizzas for Simon
Spock in his Vulcan mind
it is the universe
and the children climbing glaciers
By B.L. (female)
I hear the voice
the voice
I will forever remember
she looks into my eyes
I was interested
three syllables
a symbol of excellence
of energy
it's a soul stealer
she
says
I
love
you.
By A.H.
Respect the soft water.
Bottom level aquatic, big deal.
Allows real outsiders.
Take advice Barbour the Barbarian.
Voice, Action, symbol of excellence.
A small group is far more
the universe says swim.
Focus, the sound of breathing.
Instincts, whatever I have to do.
Forever remember the fiercely competitive.
The rest is history.
By A.D. (and me)
Children,
both twelve, don't know
the sensation of ignorance.
They are luckier than they know.
