Last week, I was clued in to the existence of the amazing tychogirl by way of the awesome Jumping From Cliffs. What I love about tychogirl’s found poems is that she actually cuts and pastes the words onto gorgeous and relevant backgrounds, making the poems themselves doubly-incredible works of art. In addition, she writes poems about space. Um, brilliant!
So, blatantly ripping a page from her book, I decided that this week’s WPW post would feature 1) a poem dealing in some way with space and/or science and 2) a poem pasted on an awesome picture background. I did not have time to cut out each word and scan and upload a beautiful picture, but I did do the next best thing digitally!
The words are from the article “Why Warp Drives Aren’t Just Science Fiction”, and the picture is of ring galaxy AM 0644-741, by NASA/ESA/Hubble Heritage Team. Hope you enjoy!

This is very cool!
^_^ I’m so glad you enjoyed!
That’s an excellent idea. 🙂 Definitely something to consider for future posts!
I thought so as well! I had planned on eventually writing some original poems based around my experiences as a research assistant, but hadn’t gotten around to it yet. Then I saw this idea and thought… BRILLIANT! 😉 I would LOVE to see some of the same in your future posts!
Thanks for the shout-out! I love that you made “found poetry” the prompt of the day. And nicely done on your own piece! Cheers.
Why hello! And of course you are very welcome for the shout-out, you deserve it!! I just LOVE all of your poems! They are all amazing! I can’t wait for more! Thanks for the visit! 🙂
