gypsy.... I don't believe anyone can claim ownership of a word in a poem, can they? no, they can't. ideas are never copyrightable. for example, robert indiana did a series of paintings with the word LOVE as its subject. the images are uniquely the property of indiana, along with any rights of duplication. the word "LOVE" is not the basis for the copyright. it is in the treatment, the depiction, the end result of a creative process which contains the intellectual property or, the subject of copyright . it is never the idea which is copyrightable, but the manner in which ideas are expressed.the law intends to promote and to protect original expression, original thoughts, or "works."
