Haiti “Found” poems taken from the New York Times by Rahzel Thompson

Darlene Etienne
Darlene Etienne was found
Weakly calling for help.
Darlene was pulled, barely alive,
From near her college in Port-au-Prince.

Rico Dibrivell
Mr. Dibrivell was trapped
In one of the aftershocks.
Rico was initially discovered
Only wearing his underpants.
Rico was trapped for 12 days
Until U.S. troops came to help
Release him.
