constrained writing

Have you ever tried constrained writing? Are there any works of constrained writing that interest you? Here is a book by the poet Christian Bök: http://archives.chbooks.com/online_books/eunoia/text.html It mainly consists of chapters that use only one vowel each. For example: >Ubu puts up mud huts, but mugwumps shun such glum suburb slums: tut, tut. Pic is another thing he made with Micah Lexier.

This is the only thing i can think of right now. The poem itself kinda suks imo but it was executed well.

Not really sure if this counts as /lit/ material but Aesop Rock's song "The Greatest Pacman victory in history" he does a whole verse where all the letters start with L,S and D as the song is about LSD. Pic related

>>2309 only a couple of lines are palindromes

No. It's usually an empty novelty. The only interesting examples seem to be either incidentally constrained (one thinks of writing of especial efficiency, i.e. Hemingway's "For sale: baby shoes, never worn.") or derive its interest by breaking the form of constraint through self-awareness of its arbirtrainess. OP's post is an example. I think it's also a little misguided as a novelty. Writing is constrained, period. People will spend their entire intellectual careers dedicated to the (arguably inachievable) pursuit of unconstrained expression. What's considered constrained writing is just especially constrained, but it's easy to see how the decision to write poetry, not poetry that is is all palindrome or some shit, comes with heavy impositions. Someone like Kenneth Goldsmith is still spending time trying to break free from these. You also see artists attempting much the same in their obligatory artist statements, as well as precocious boys in school.

>>2311 but the entire poem is one big palindrome, do you see?
