Entity explains how Dadaism is the art of visual poetry.

If you’re a woman into the world of the obscure, the absurd, or just the plain random, then it’s time to pick up Dada poetry as your newest form of art entertainment. Perhaps you’ve always wanted to write poetry but haven’t found the right words or ideas with which to express yourself with elegance. There’s no need to worry! Dada poetry requires absolutely no understanding of the English language. Here are the simple steps to creating your own Dada poetry.

WHAT YOU’LL NEED:
– Scissors
– Newspaper or Magazine
– Paper
– Writing Utensil
– A Small Bag 

STEPS:
1. Grab a newspaper or magazine article.
2. Get your pair of scissors.
3. Cut out a section of writing that’s about as long as you want your poem to be.
4. Cut out each word from the article separately.
5. Put your pile of words into a bag and shake the collection around.
6. Take out a word and put it down in a line. (Don’t look at the word when you take it out!)
7. Repeat #6 until you’ve emptied the bag.
8. Copy the words over onto another piece of paper.
9. Become a Dada poet!

Now that you’ve got your authentic Dada poem, get ready to hit up an open mic night to show off your cryptic creation. Dada art is all about the absurdity of life and culture; this method by Tristan Tzara is sure to achieve the cacophony that makes authentic Dadaist poetry. The side-eye glances and confused head tilts mean that your audience is interpreting the poem flawlessly! Great job!
