Description

Page 121 from "Serpent Mage" by Margaret Weis & Tracy Hickman. Text blacked out to protect the innocent. The poem:

His sharp-edged hatred
A bolt he clutched
Over fire;

Dousing feeling,
Afraid of anything honest -

The deep pockets rolling over him
Faster all the time.

This is great, John. I'm amazed you found that on one page of text. I've tried my hand at found poetry like this but with little luck. I see it's something you work with quite a bit though. Any tips? Do you go seeking or do you just kind of notice it as you're reading?
