Which is the best definition of the term found poem?

Answer 1

A poem that borrows and rearranges words from another text

Answer 2

Found poetry, instead of poetry you compose from nothing, is poetry you "find" in something already written. You can take a page from the newspaper, or the words on the page of a book, and examine them, and start crossing out the ones you don't want in your poem. You can also take already printed things from magazines and rearrange them into your own poetry... sort of like a collage. Wikipedia has a very interesting article on found poetry: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Found_poetry.

Answer 3

A poem that borrows and arranges words from another text.
