hello there you are welcome to help yourself to these few words
i'm writing using a traditional form from exmoor in devon
it's known as rivermouth scansion and runs wide and slow and deep
the rhyming scheme, that's been used since the roman occupation,
uses a jigsaw of assonances and aspirations expressing the hopes
of folk who wait the long winter for a bright sunny spring
it's a gentle rhythm that's sprung from the brooks that break
through the rocky depths of the dense heathered moorland
the style we are using today is known as aerated concrete
here's how it goes, into every space insert the following
'insert into every space the following phrase and keep going
and as you do add a word from stanza one, taken at random
and then return to each space and add this phrase again.'
Do it thrice and your words will reach a billion or more
Tom Rudge
