I like the play on words with the antho theme and "Wiki" games. The first thing that comes to my mind when I hear "Wicked Games" is the Chris Issak song, so I enjoyed that aspect as well. I had that song playing in my head the whole time I wrote my story. lol I enjoyed these poems. Thanks for sharing with us. :)

A nice take-on on the theme. Your poems stunned me with their simple gesture and perfect maneuver... :D

 

I found 'Found Poem' rather interesting and very thoughtful form. They will made us think. To write and to read. You have done very well on those poems. Thank you for writing and/or sharing... :)

Lots of careful work in these pieces and it has quite an impact. The poems together told an interesting story. It's a nice take on the song. Thanks for sharing.

This is intriguing, a very different take on the theme and so thought provoking ... also, a form of poetry I was unfamiliar with so I learned something from it.

Thank you, Emi. Found Poems are experimental and the results are not always compelling. Sometimes they're a true surprise, though.

I always enjoy your poems and this was no different. I think 'found' poems always prove to be so interesting and these provided a different take on the theme. I liked that it made me go hmmm...

 

Thank you for sharing
