Description First stab at this type of found text poetry. I'm used to finding whole sentences from different sources and recompiling them, but I've wanted to try this format for ages. It's a lot harder, because you're very limited on words and ordering. I found this hymn in my mum's drawer and I liked the words in it, so decided to try it out and use them ^^

_________

follow me
go where you don't know
never will you let my love be grown

will you leave behind
kind hostile stare
will you answer me?

you blind
I will set free
and never will you kiss
and admit to you and me

you hide
I name the fear inside
will you reshape my sight in you

echoes let me follow you

o 3o Amazing! Very nice composition, despite the limitations! I've thought about trying something similar for a long time now, but I could never make it work quite as flawlessly as you have. xD

I adore the second last line, 'will you reshape my sight in you?' - wonderful, wonderful, wonderful! The subtle rhyming is also very nice. Beautifully done!

I was reading this and I was thinking, "What makes this unusual?" And then I realized: it rhymes. Most found poetry is, understandably, freeverse, so you've brought a structure to it. Interesting. Keep looking for unusual sources to create from; I've used IMing transcripts and travel ads for some of mine.

Thanks for the comment.
Now I've opened up to this kind of practice I'm looking at everything with potential of making something out of it. I even accepted a book from Jehovah's Witnesses with the intention of amending it

Very nice. I had a similar epiphany with photography and collaging; once you open your mind to it, you see opportunities everywhere.

Thank you! I have my Uni to thank for that, a lot of my stuff has been influenced by the kind of things we look at in lecture, and a lot of it's work for my actual degree xD
