Missing Link

I was going to add a link to my post this morning, and completely forgot. (I blame the rain and the cats for making me feel so relaxed.) Anyway, here it is now. It is a link to my very first Spam Subject Line Found Poem, posted in the [livejournal.com profile] spamdump comunity. It is (as the name indicates) assembled from a selection of subject lines of spams I've recently received, arranged into something that resembles verse, but isn't. I suppose it's sort of like William S. Burroughs' cut-and-reassemble works. I'm actually rather pleased with the way it turned out, and I'll probably do more of them when I get the time.

I woke up to see fog, and went out to find that it was filled with mist. Gradually, the drops of mist coalesced and became rain, and the fog slowly diminished, and now it has become an ordinary rainy day. But for a while, it was quite splendid to see a rainstorm from inside the cloud itself. I suppose that ducks and geese get to see that sort of thing all the time. Airplane pilots, too, perhaps. I hope they appreciate it.
