Sijo / Korean Song:
Proverbs
Pleasant words
are as a honeycomb,
sweet to the soul and health to the bones
Flowing from the lips
upon ears of the wise in heart holding fast
A divine sentence
is in the lips of the Lord

Definition Material:
From
Poets.org:
Found poems take existing
texts and refashion them, reorder them, and present them as
poems. The literary equivalent of a collage, found poetry is
often made from newspaper articles, street signs, graffiti,
speeches, letters, or even other poems.
and
from
Wikipedia:
Found poetry is a type of
poetry created by taking words, phrases, and sometimes whole
passages from other sources and re-framing them as poetry by
making changes in spacing and/or lines (and consequently
meaning), or by altering the text by additions and/or
deletions. The resulting poem can be defined as either
treated: changed in a profound and systematic manner; or
untreated (verbatim): virtually unchanged from the order,
syntax and meaning of the original.
