Poster poems: Found poetry

…via Billy Mills, an August #Poetry Challenge at the Guardian. Perhaps someone would venture a cut-up or collage from, the ultimate August poem about poets, Alexander Pope's Letter to Dr Arbuthnot.

Time for an August @Broadsided Collaboration

at the Picnic, right here on the blog & Facebook page… is where you will find the electronic #Mountainair vector. All too often, I postpone and forget. Tamra Hays is IRL when in town (and if she still vectorizes). But any number can, so

Go forth and Vectorize!
