Deletion Poetry #2

A second round of the first round.

For this swap you will create a poem through the deletion/selection of words, phrases and sentences on an already printed piece of text. To make it clear - you are not cutting and pasting pre-printed words into a sentence, but choosing a block of text and only selecting certain words.

• You could choose an old book page, a newspaper article, a cereal box... whatever! As long or as short poem as you like.

• You should think about presenting your poem somewhat like a postcard [eg stuck on to some card to make it stiff, recycling encouraged!] but sent in an envelope to protect it.

• Two partners, one poem to each. Let it speak for itself or write a note about it to your partner!
