The Poetry of Linkage

Posted by on Wed, May 13, 2009 at 2:27 PM

9e54/1242239916-fresh_sausage.jpgMolly Gaudry has published a poem titled on her blog that is entirely made out of lines from other people's blogs. And each line is a link back to the source of the line. It's not necessarily a great poem, but the idea is interesting. It seems as though someone could make a nice Morning News-style roundup of the day's events by putting it in link-poem format. I think the contextualization would be interesting.

So When I first saw the picture and read the headline I thought it said the poetry of shrinkage; and I was curious and my 10 yearold boy brain started giggling madly; Sadly I am just a deet da dee who cant read... ah disapointment my old friend.
