Origins of Frame-Word™ Poetry

Poetic Pete, aka Peter Karplus, is proud to present his form of Word Poem poetry which he first created in 2002. This type of Word Poems he has named Frame-Word™ Poems, a new poetry for the 21st century, which gives poetry an added personal twist by letting the recipient of the poem pick and choose the word lists with which Poetic Pete would work from to weave his magic and create each poem. Usually no more than 20 words supplied per list, and Frame-Word™ Poems were thereby born. The word lists he receives contain so wide a range of words that often most people think it impossible to complete the task of weaving a cohesive poem from them.
