"News print poetry", a form of "found poetry" or "blackout poetry." I took one story from the Orlando Sentinel newspaper each day and transformed it into a poem by creatively selecting words from the story. The words are kept in their original order and no words were added. The 2012 project is completed, but I add new poems from time to time.
I commented on my progress, and about writing in general, on a companion blog: http://newsprintpoetry.blogspot.com.

National Grapefruit Month
February
is National Grapefruit Month.
Any
way you slice it,
Or
squeeze it, Grapefruit
offers lots of diversity.
The book is out -- a collection of 101 of the 2012 first quarter poems. I'm taking
down the posts, but I'll leave the first stanza of each poem.
