Description:

So do you know Dadaism? It is an art movement, quite weird and very creative.

For thi challenge we are going to create a dadaist poem.

In this way:

"How to Make a Dadaist Poem (method of Tristan Tzara)

To make a Dadaist poem:

 Take a newspaper.
Take a pair of scissors.
Choose an article as long as you are

planning to make your poem. Cut out the article. Then cut out each of the words that make up this article and put them in a bag. Shake it gently. Then take out the scraps one after the other in the order in which they left the bag. Copy conscientiously. The poem will be like you. And here are you a writer, infinitely original and endowed with a sensibility that is charming though beyond the understanding of the vulgar.

--Tristan Tzara "

You can use your own language. Email your partner with a photo of your creation.
