I tried writing a lipogram, for the very first time in my life. For all those who are unaware of what a lipogram is (don’t worry, I had no clue about it too, before day before yesterday!), I’ll explain it.
As per the dictionary a lipogram is
-
a composition from which the writer systematically omits a certain letter or certain letters of the alphabet.
I wrote one using only the vowel ‘e’
The poem is titled She, He
She
sees red. He sees green. She
errs. He jeers. She
sneers.
He
speeds. She veers. He
meets her eyes. She greets. He
flees.
When I started, I found it extremely restrictive but writing a poem with rules was fun. What do you think of the lipogram written? If you do give it a shot, do share it in the comments so I can read it too.
