What does editing a poem & recycling have in common?

Where do outtakes of lines of poetry end up?

Scraps. Filled/crossed-out pages. Appropriated ink. Accounted for.

A list-poem waiting to happen?



Scraps. Of food. Compost.

Or salvaged? (personally speaking) Leftovers. Enjoyed. As in, put to good use. Mulch?
Lunch, never better.

  1. Foolish buttons, just sitting there

    Along with potato chips
    sorted and oriented

    She denies the buxom star her due
    as the students look on

    "I was once your age," one says
    slouching in the library chair

    Incisive tailspins triggered
    Laughter by the pound
