Univocalic poetry is a type of constrained writing that uses only a single vowel throughout the entire poem.
The Challenge:
- Write a univocalic poem.
- Write about a struggling writer.
- Additional constraints: For English, refrain from using the letter "E". For Filipino, refrain from using the letter "I". For TagLish, both constraints will apply.
- The title must also be univocalic, applying the selected vowel.
- Minimum of 20 words and maximum of 100 words.* * * * * * * * * * * * *
Sly Spirits Stitching Scripts
Sly, sick spirits scribbling nightly
Thinking swiftly, singing implicitly
Writing with sting, flying in instinct
Trying in winning, winning in trying
Nifty, stylish, slick tricks within
Stitching scripts, filling it with 'things'
—Indistinct blinds; things inhibiting flight
Living, fighting, drifting in fright.
'Til this mind is ill, sick, dying
Sitting idly, drinking insights in living
It will still try stitching with sting
Writing with strings, scribbling with ink.
A/N: For me, this is honestly the best poetry piece I ever wrote. <3
