A classmate and I collaborated on a project where we created a game that would write a poem using Twitter, six people, a single die and birth order.
We used the word ADVICE to come up with six other words: Addiction, Death, Voyeur, Itching, Celibacy, and Eczema. She chose the first three words, I chose the last. We swapped words so that I had the first three and she had the last, then we each made a list of at least six different tweets using the individual word as a trend. With our six piles of six tweets or more, we went to class. Depending on birth order (oldest to youngest), we chose who got to roll the die first to determine which word they would get (1-Addiction, 2-Death, 3-Voyeur), etc. Then from youngest to oldest, we cast the die to determine which number the tweet would be for the first stanza. For the second stanza, we reversed the die-casting order from oldest to youngest, and so on until we had six stanzas then a tercet until we had created something like a Sestina.
And the result:
@websites I’d have thought you were into voyeurism:)
New post: Meth is Death
Dear eczema: go away. Thanks
In another dimension, with voyeuristic intention,
I have another addiction. I have a beard.
My face has become immune to itching.
Temporary celibacy doesn’t count as celibacy—that’s a dry spell.
Just had sex. Im officially on top. Sorry I cant be
Packing, wrapping stuff in newspaper gives me eczema
on my voyueristic little cherub hard at work.
Being with out the internet for the past 3 days has made
Itching the crotch
Death to all the ppl that juss unfolowwed
Bad promotional ideas—Sylvia Plath doll complete with mini oven,
Scratch n Sniff eczema booklet, Pop up book on erectile dysfunction.
Losing to a bad addiction of buffalo chicken wing pizza,
I am now living a life of celibacy, Motherfuckers
Pitching, pitching, itching. Hash abuse!
Demonic In clinical psychology, voyeurism is the sexual interest in or practice of
Eczema. I didn’t miss you
ITCHING MY ASS, doing whatever it took to break free
from pornography. Temperature voyeurism must stop.
Prolonged celibacy can cause issues relating to ppl.
So if I have sex I won’t hate all of humanity.
Death to polo boos.
Myspace used to be an addiction.
Death to the bitch that crosses my path.
How did you happen to see your neighbor having sex?
My genital Itching is Getting Better Guys, TY for asking
Celibacy→a fool-proof way to avoid potty-training!

Voyeur in a really awkward dude’s life haha
Officially one day strong in my celibacy
How is the eczema on your thumb at the moment?
Did you know according to the Bible
Eczema can eat my dick. Taking up celibacy—gonna try to grow that hymen back.
Death is the next step, after life, I mean. Ah! Emphatic denial, the first sign you have an addiction.
Favorite new saying after sex: are you itching?
The best way to read it might be to cut and past the entire poem into Text Edit on a Mac and have the automated voice read it to you.
I woke up in a closet.
