B2MeM Prompt, Card and Number: Found poem, Formats & Genres, G54
Format: Poem
Genre: Poetry, comedy, meta, crack
Rating: T
Warnings: None.
Characters: N/A
Pairings: N/A
Creator’s Notes: I created this poem by putting together a selection of blog titles used by people on Tumblr who are in Silmarillion fandom (who have tagged something with the #Silmarillion or #silm tag). The only changes I made were to punctuation.
Summary: The experience of being in Silm fandom, as encapsulated by Silm fandom.

Far, far beyond the island
Here there be fandoms
In the Silm trashcan --
Welcome, bitch!
Welcome to the Shire.

Will I be active?
Deviant to the bone?
Riding the horizon,
Fighting dragons with you?
Let no grief lie between us.

Good morning kings, let's get this lembas!
Do you swear to uphold the Principals of Gayness?

Ship all the ladies!
Túrin says "Gay Rights!"
Fëanor NO!
Fëanor YES!
Ride for ruin,
Noldor apologist,
To whatever end!
Jog on, kitties!

Uncaged,
Maedhros did deeds of surpassing valour:
Art and stuff, I guess.

So many ideas, so little time!
The worst ideas in the legendarium --
I'm a nerd, deal with it.
Legitimately petty about my favourite characters,
A hedonist at heart,
Wenches and mead,
Whatever catches my fancy --
You know what they do to guys like us in the halls.

For Eru's sake, people!
Don't forget
The basement of infinite possibilities,
The nightingale's song,
The countless stars,
And Morgoth came.

Every character in the Silm:
Terrible, beautiful sparks in space.
Dead space.
Melkor needs to stop.

Simbelmynë.
Long was the way that fate them bore.

Shit happens in life.
We need a shroud,
A big tub of Silm tears.
Give me a bucket.

What a brilliant idea. I had no clue that the various blog titles would add up to such a hilarious poem - and actually work together!
I would like you to know that I nearly spit my tea at the monitor at
Fëanor NO!
Fëanor YES!
Ride for ruin,
Noldor apologist,
To whatever end!


And fortunately I had already swallowed it when I came to
Uncaged,
Maedhros did deeds of surpassing valour:
Art and stuff, I guess.


Howling with laughter! This is a work of art!

Heh, I sort of recognise a few of these though I can't put names to them. We need a shroud??? Probably, yes.

I'm usually not one for poetry, but this was pretty funny. (And that's what a 'found poem' is, I was wondering).
