The Found Poetry Review
You’ll want a dictionary for this one! Select a passage from one of your newspaper articles. Replace each noun in the passage with the seventh noun following it in the dictionary. A hard-copy dictionary will make the exercise more varied and fun; however, you can also use the online N+7 generator to create your text.
The editors are proud to announce that The Found Poetry Review is officially open for business. We look forward to reviewing your poetry and photography as we move towards our first submissions deadline on June 1, 2011.
In the interim, we’ll be posting semi-regular updates on this blog with resources and news related to found poetry, as well as the best examples of found poetry and centos curated from the web.

I used the “If today is your birthday” segment of the horoscopes, and I used Webster’s Instant Word Guide instead of a dictionary, which proved interesting!

If I ever publish this one in a collection, I’ll need to prune it somewhere. It’s a verse or two too long, too unkempt.

I know I’ve said elsewhere how I screwed this up (I didn’t read the prompt correctly and looked up every word, not just the nouns! I also chose not to use any proper nouns–from the article, or from the dictionary–just for the sake of continuity, I guess) Anyhow, all that being said, here’s the effort:
