‘In the north east corner of London ’s Hyde Park stands Speakers’ Corner. There, seven days a week, speeches are made by the great the good and the mad and the bad. Of course it’s mainly the mad and bad as the great the good tend to be in demand elsewhere on account of their great-and-goodness.

In this age of convenience however, you don’t need to go to Speakers’ Corner to witness such a spectacle. You don’t need to go anywhere. Because the internet brings the madness directly to you. In the form of news website comments sections…’

Dave Gorman takes the ridiculous, opinionated and maddest comments from a whole host of these sites and weaves them into poetry.

You may have heard some of them before as part of Dave’s 2011/12 stand-up tour Dave Gorman’s Powerpoint Presentation or on his Absolute Radio show. Found Poetry is a little book that features 17 of the best; covering topics which have ignited the comments sections over the past few years, from The French contract to produce British flags, to Prince William’s intention not to wear a wedding ring.
