Other Words Too by `fllnthblnk is a great take on found poetry, taking words from a larger work and blacking out the rest to form something entirely new and different.

The concept is new to me and the way it is executed is different from the Black print blocking im used to <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s…" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)"/> the meaning is dead on. Most people that curse to express themselves dont know how to fully express their feelings any other way. The last word alone sums the entire peace up fairly nicely and to add to that the repetition of the word "shit" from beginning to near end exemplify this even more. over all the whole piece makes me wonder what the rest of the book could end up like if it was blacked out such as this one page.
