Take a newspaper.
Take some scissors.
Choose from this paper an article the length you want to make your poem.
Cut out the article.
Next carefully cut out each of the words that make up this article and put them all in a bag.
Shake gently.
Next take out each cutting one after the other.
Copy conscientiously in the order in which they left the bag.
The poem will resemble you.
And there you are--an infinitely original author of charming sensibility, even though unappreciated by the vulgar herd.
I will have to find a more interesting newspaper than the Morgantown Dominion Post. Perhaps one of those supermarket tabloids?
not excepting this (really didn’t know what I was excepting) but love it 100%
Some people (Those who are not in poetry) think that writing modern poems is very easy.It can be written putting random words side by side.This can not be said of this poem. I do not have an idea about a Dadist poem.Perhaps the poet means how to connect the random things and find a meaning there. The word- 'Conscientiously ' implies it.- -'The poem will resemble you' - - You connect with words, you find meaning as per your inner world.
Not this one again. I hate to be a fuddy-duddy but cut and paste just does'nt cut it for me and my vulgar herd, but I was thinking of attaching a paint brush to my horse's tail and back him up to a canvas especially on a fly-filled afternoon- -I could call it Dadist Art
What a way to create a poem! Really strange and unaesthetic!
Very nicely as it is! 10++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
I was hoping this was written in jest. Apparently not. Tristan Tzara was the leader of an avant-garde movement called dada. Dada protested the concept of art and western civilization. Also reason. Dada wasn't into syntax, grammar was just too restrictive for the expression of their talent. Unsurprisingly, the Dadaists were into cacophony, dreams, and drugs. They would have loved the psychedelic hippy movement.
