Torcoroma Holy Sanctuary At the core Virgin Mary sits in a tree root. Her curving beak gives the illusion of an enigmatic smile. So now the big question is, "Are the dead to return"? So many researchers are divided over Neanderthals and God Were it not for hot spots in the top layer of the ocean's surface, most of us would be swimming. |
Author's Comments
This is an example of what is called a "found" poem. I put this together using sentences and fragments from three specific magazine articles. They all came from National Geographic. One was about a new bird species that was discovered, the others were about earthquakes, and the discovery of a woolly mammoth skeleton. I used the articles to build a cohesive poem. None of these are my own words
 Just my thought process in organizing and imagination. This was written for my workshop class. |

You say, look at me now. don't shut those dyslexic eyes. So your heart's a slow learner and those drugs are its disguise. Well, it's a clear costume, you might as well not try to hide.
I've always believed Bad Man Black is a "skin walker"....People who pass on from their skin-bodies, and stay behind in spirit as little, mean beings...animals: totems...fish, bears, whales....As a child an Indian told me about Skin Walkers--people in skins that isn't really theirs.
It is interesting how I can connect to a poem that is really a bunch of "found" random words. The technique itself sounds like an adventure!

Holy slag, it's a fraggin JET! Get in the car---HOLY PRIMUS!!
If you're very interested in Skin Walkers, there's a "urban fantasy" writer who has taken a spin on them...The most he's talked about them was in his book, "Some Place to be Flying." The name's Charles de Lint; he's different, but very fresh--very unnerving, but in a good way....makes madness into a beautiful thing...mysterious alleyways filled with gremlins and mermaid's in a murky harbor, that kind of stuff. I haven't read him in ages and was suddenly remembering him.
