Today I have been slicing words from magazines like a blackmailing pro, to create what is known as ‘Found Poetry’. Here’s what I discovered amidst the piles of paper words…
Fickle.
Panoramic florals amplify the monochrome morning.
You rave with that cheap thrill,
Artificial in flirtation,
A moonphase away from a world
Quilted in blue.
Hey hey. Did Bowie do this with his music once. Cool idea. X

Yes! We saw it at the V&A didn’t we? He built a programme to do it for him. I remember being impressed, I wrote it down in a notebook and planned to do it one day, and promptly forgot. :-S x
I love this SO much!!

Thank you very much! 🙂
I really, really love this. And you really did capture all those cool fonts! I swear, we are going to be making all kinds of ‘ransom’ note poetry now. I just went through the Elle and went “oooh, I want that word, and that one and that one….” I am going to be snipping out all kinds of words now.

Thank you! 🙂 Haha yes, we shall never read a magazine in the same way again… my collection of Vogues are not safe now!
I know what you mean! As it is i collect colored paper from magazines to make paper stars, but now not a single page will be safe. But at least I can clear out stacks of magazines easier…Who wants to read an article when half the words are cut out. 😛
awesome! 😀
