I had a class in college applying chaos theory to writing (eek!). There was a poet we studied that loved to read the dictionary. After reading the poem, re-reading it with a dictionary in one hand and the poem in the other opened up a whole new world. Using the second or third defination of a word, not just the most common, added depth to the poems. It was eye-opening in the ways to manipulate words. But I can't remember his name, darn, now I'm going to have to get off my computer and go find it.
