How gorgeous are the mad ones?
The ones whose pre-coffee
conversation skills
imagine a faultless love
like Sunday's frozen pitch;
The saints and soldiers who
travel at the opportune moment,
dislike destiny,
and try disposable theories.
How gorgeous are the mad ones?

The author's comments:
This is a found poem, meaning that I compiled it from bits and pieces of text that I, well, found. This particular one is taken from pieces of my friends' facebook statuses, though these poems are fun to write with song titles, news headlines... anything really.
