(A found poem is made from an
already published piece – an essay, a newspaper article, a journal, someone
else’s poem. The “poet-to-be” selects
words, phrases, or lines that strike the poet, then restructures that
collection into a new, free-verse poem. I took my journal where I track my daily food
intake for my WWs diet to create the following “poem.” It is made from food
entries, their point values, and thoughts. As you will see, the diet started
off religiously but soon gave way to temptation.)
