Found Poem

This is a found poem, which is when you take lines/words from the book and throw them together to form a poem. This one is from To Kill A Mockingbird. I did it for an english assignment.

It's a sin to kill a mockingbird,

This is a truth,

Most folks seem to think they're right and you're wrong,

You can never really understand a person,

Until you consider things from his point of view,

There's a lot of ugly in this world,

No need to be afraid,

However,

You,

Can do plenty of things,

You count your blessings,

Like,

A pair of good-luck pennies,

But,

You rarely win,

You are too young to understand it,

But,

Do not be,

Some kind of men who,

Are so busy worrying about the next world,

They've never learned to live in this one,

For goodness' sake,

Go stark raving mad,

I want you to see what real courage is,

I'm no idealist,

But,

Our lives,

Are only as,

Great as, 

The moments,

That make it up

[The old me]

uniquely structured, but I liked the way you did it. Different then many poems cause of that. The poem itself is really well put and written.
