found poetry poem

found poetry is a type of poetry created

      by taking words, phrases, sometimes whole

passages from other sources, reframing them

         as poetry by changing spacing and/or lines

(and consequently meaning), or by altering text

         by additions and/or deletions. resulting poems

can be defined as treated: changed in a profound

         and systematic manner; or untreated: virtually

unchanged original order, syntax, or meaning.
