Writers on deviant art have discovered a new way to find inspiration--- stealing it from someone else!Never fear though, as this particular brand of plagiarism is
sanctioned by the original authors through the new lit group, *
versecannibal.
*
versecannibal asks for poems to be offered up for sacrifice to the *
versecannibal gallery, from where dA writers can take the piece to rewrite, cut-up, use as inspiration, or adapt to suit themselves in any other way they like.
The cannibalized pieces are then posted and
linked in the comments on the gallery submission, where everyone reads and enjoys all the exciting and different places a poem can be taken.
Its a bit like donating a photograph to a stock club for others to use in photo manipulations, only... it's words!
We do take the utmost care to make sure all parties are credited properly, so be sure to read the guidelines in our journal as well as the footnotes in author's comments on the donated deviations in our gallery.
Donors so far include:

and project creator:

Sound like fun? 
Take a look around *
versecannibal and see the other face of plagiarism
its good side!
Devious Comments
Quite an addictive pastime (and a bit more productive than shooting kitties out a cannon).
Thanks for this. I'll be cannibalising some more soon. : )
