B2MeM: Just a little weird something

[illwynd]

Yeah, so I've been working on a certain kind of constrained writing, a type which is just a little bit easier than licking your own elbow, and just to drive myself extra-crazy, I decided to make it drabble-length as well. So, if the writing is lower quality than my norm... that's just because my thesaurus got a major workout and this is the best I could do. But, all I have to say is that I now believe that Ents took forever to say anything because they were speaking in constrained writing. (except that what I just said doesn't make a lick'o'sense.)

Notes: The first person to guess what type of writing constraint I was using... well, I'll think of something nice for you if that actually happens.

Far    I roam;              a lofty               elevation or

river’s             water    are    never       toilsome         

obstacles.  Forests perpetual        are my        one wardship. 
Talk       slowly,      my friend.        Hoom    hom.   Ent

language,  yes, is     unhasty;    wearisome maybe.     Regardless,      
if        Entwives   traverse       near…     (I         speculate;

already     I roamed    westwards.    And         eastwards,         shriveled

are     Entwife        lands!)        A     surpassing        hasty  business    
is     undertaken,    searching through.      Soon       combating,        Ents 
will march!          Affraying at    the          stronghold,   proving 
strength!   A      clever       fool,   traitorous       master 
of   Isengard,         except      he   disregards         adjacent  
neighbors,         mistaking

Fangorn’s

drowse of

watchful

continuing

for weak

downfall.

As trees

see, they,

if antagonized,

emanate     terrifying powers.     Enemies dissipate.

Wow...it's just great, illwynd. I loved every word of it. You are a very talented writer, and certainly with a non-standard way of thinking. Thanks for sharing!

Now that I know the whole story behind it, I'm even more awed!!
