FOUND FRIDAY

This Week's Found Poetry is brought to you by the letter P.

Guest poet Anja Geary delights us with her found poem of her lasting memories of last weekend coupled with nuances of a Jeffersonian romp or two with a maidservant (my interpretation).

A DISCOVERY

As for mine, I thought a new medium would be in order so this story of a shy & strong girl comes from Los Angeles Magazine. 

FIRE FROM FUMES

FOUND FRIDAY

This week in FOUND FRIDAYS!

Guest Poet is Cousin Maggie, the preteen.

I was so overwhelmingly amazed with her poem. Half bred out of confusion. Half out of wit.

As for my poem, I decided to write one for BernMatthews.

What do you think?

OBVIOUS

TO THEN SEE HER WINTER

We sat down one night for a 4 way cousin group poetry night...Here is mine and Tay's. The other 2 cousins will be appearing later to be sure!

FACE TO FACE

THE PRICE OF A MAN

Found Friday

There's great risk in trying to start a weekly blog feature like "Found Friday" but my great love for FOUND POETRY might be enough to do something consistent for a change.

I started doing found poetry, bored one day in a coffee shop surrounded by a multitude of outdated newspapers. The results were actually surprising. Just because you are musing off the words of another doesn't necessarily mean they can't be transformed into your own.

I have recently been using a Henry David Thoreau book which seems to have some very interesting words on its pages. Also, romance novels do just fine. There's way more in store such as newspapers, street signs, billboards, photos (just wait), other people's stolen journals (maybe...you never know), and more.

Today's poem was subconsciously inspired by an interesting conversation with a friend's mom over the honor a soldier feels when fighting a war.

So for first found friday, may I present to you:

A YOUNG MAN'S WAR
