Writing Exercise

Write a poem composed only of beautiful sentences.

Write another poem, well, put together another poem composed of beautiful sentences written by others. These sentences should come from the writings of others who are not considered poets. Use at least four sources.

Can't say how beautiful they are but lately I find myself writing one sentence poems. They're not terribly long but longer than the average sentence.

All beautiful sentences? By whose standard? The male gaze? The female gaze? The alien probes' gaze (let's not go there)? I feel like I'm the ugly human in the Twilight Zone episode who's really astonishingly beautiful while everyone else is a hideous turd.

Sometimes interesting is beautiful enough. Sometimes it isn't.
