I love found poems.
Recognising them as potential poems is almost as good as writing a poem in the first place.
To date my personal favourite is Rumsfeldts little speech that begins, There are things were know we know, and there are things that we don't know we don't know. It made a great found poem, real zen.
I will look it out and post it.
 
Meanwhile, please do continue mining those sulphrous veins...

not having written a poem for so long
i thought i would make one up with emoticons

but i will have to download them first

how many are there?
cannot be very many
(how many emotions are there?)

how many arrangements
can you make from these many emoticons
before drying up entirely ?

i think i will continue mining
my old sulphurous veins
at least then i will never know
this is the last one
no more can be made
