Found Poetry using Line 24 from each scene in Act One of Macbeth, rejigged, cut down, and final words chosen. The title: Tempest Tossed comes from the line, 'yet it shall be tempest-tossed', which I couldn't sit within the poem but sang out to me as words that needed to be used.
Free Verse:
Tempest Tossed
Hover through the fog and filthy air
blow the horrid deed into every eye
and wish that it could be undone
Haiku
Tempest Tossed
Blow the horrid deed
Through the fog and filthy air
Shall be tempest
