Synopsis

Found & Lost is a collection of repurposed and remixed Found Poetry and Visual Poetry. George McKim has repurposed and remixed the work of poets ranging from Tristan Tzara to Lyn Hejinian and has transformed their words into a fascinating collection of strangely haunting Found Poems. Augmenting these poems are fourteen vintage dictionary pages that have metamorphosed into full color Visual Poems.

"Using poetic trinkets from its own ancestry, McKim's Found & Lost builds us a reconstruction fit for 21st century literary exploits. McKim's poems stir up and resettle our generation's shared modern heritage with a subtlety and grace fit for veneration while opening itself to a playful audience in the way an old familiar playground greets a neighborhood child. These poems are true pleasures." J.D. Mitchell-Lumsden, Editor – Cricket Online Review Poetry Journal

“George McKim’s poems are always on the verge of happening, in that happysad place just short of sense, where pure sonic energy spins its truest and most absurd shapes. Found and Lost is a homecoming to the bottomless, where you left your clouds and the keys. It is an impossible space that I don’t want to leave." Peter Cole Friedman, Poet

“There can be no quibbling over the delight that George McKim’s Found & Lost, with its artful assemblage of pre-existing text, provides. The poems are fresh, revitalize the words of others through juxtaposition, incision, and new 'sharp eyes,' to use an included phrase from Tristan Tzara; and the most apt word to describe the visuals, a series of augmented dictionary pages, is 'wonderful.'” Mark Young, Editor – Otoliths Poetry Journal
