Magnetic Poetry


Magnetic Poetry

At last, a discovery that could turn the most dull-witted or insensitive soul into a master of romantic and surreal verse.

That was the theory, but in practice it simply created a fantastic opportunity for leaving mucky messages for your family.

Magnetic poetry was basically hundreds of tiny fridge magnets with random words typed onto them. You simply arranged the words into a poem of your choice - the ruder the better.
