[Jim Moonan]

If a poet’s work is to take reality and filter it so that it becomes poetry, then “found” poetry is the fast food of poetry.

I came across this on social media this morning. All I did was reformat it and add a bit to the end.

The challenge is: post a piece of poetry you "found" today...

Here is what I found:

Twisted Logic

All lies and jests
Still a man hears what he wants to hear
And disregards the rest
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx-Paul Simon

He didn’t say that
and if he did he didn’t
mean that
and if he did you didn’t
understand it
and if you did it’s not
a big deal
and if it is
others have said
worse.

Glamorous narcissist.
Cult captcha.
Lie lie lie
lie lie lie lie lie lie lie
lie lie lie
lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie lie.
