Based on the first "found poem" below. I took its first line and imitated its structure to produce my own poem. This time I supplied the words.
People looked at me
while I stood in line
waiting to use the drinking fountain
behind the boy whose ear
asked to be licked.
I mean . . .
it was right there
right in front of me
right when I bent forward
right when my tongue leapt out
right when the teacher pulled me out of line.
And I don’t think
she understood.
