this is an assignment that my english teacher gave me last year and i thought you guys might like to try it. it's not as easy as it sounds!

find the lyrics to your favorite song, and print them out. grab a highlighter and highlight small phrases. only 2 or 3 words per phrase will do. the number of phrases however is unlimited.

once you are done that, divide your paper into rectangles/sqaures (you should have enough squares so that each phase can go onto 1 sqaure.) cut out the sqaures and write each phrase down on the pieces of paper.

now try to arange the phrases into a poem.

Rules:

1. you can add words.
2. you can not take words out of phrases.
3. be creative.
4. do not just rewrite the song only with the words in a different order.
5. have fun!

sorry i don't have an example. :-( i lost the paper with my poem on it. if i find it, i'll remember to post it.

enjoy!
