One of my remixed found-poems, "If you don't care where you are, then you ain't lost", has found a good home in Poetry WTF?!, a rather cool online mag that specialises in this kind of stuff.

And looks a fun site.

Hi Seth, thanks so very much!

Yes, a fun site, isn't it? I always rejoice when I find a place where they have a good eye on the fun side of poetry.

Yeh. This site looks as if it is the spot for PLAYING ABOUT with words. Great. Gonna hang there a bit.

Seth, right you are: PLAYING ABOUT is the key.

Oskar, you're more'n welcome; I'm always glad to lead handsome young lads into mischief.

Poppy, it's mighty pleased I am to see you enjoyed it. Thanks a lot!

Suzanne, thank you! Yea, it looks like PG is about to take over the universe (or whatever).

Thanks again, Seth! -- well yes, as far as my memory serves me (which isn't much), I've been in PWTF twice - and so have you.

Now that you mention it, I'll find some more to send them. I like the playfulness of that place; see if they have some rules I can break. :P
