I recently read What I’ve Stolen, What I’ve Earned by Sherman Alexie. It was amazing!
Alexie is one of my favorite poets. I own and have read, and re-read, his sex previous collections of poems.
While reading the book I wrote a found-sonnet made up of lines I loved in the book: Found Sonnet, Lines I Loved From Sherman Alexie’s What I’ve Stolen, What I’ve Earned. It’s an experiment that people have liked. I hope you enjoy it.
