Spam, the New Beat Poetry

[thomryng]

some arcadia, not augean imperium

barbiturate be thence or berkeley may emasculate it
some prosecute: burnout, not fanfare, is california's legacy on a palfrey
bestubble or journal not bestir but compleat!

zaire!

mercurial or snippy, see enormity
see pep
see the keys of worship
see vetch in bessel in fedders

lavish some meteoric skeet, confect it dolores!
it's cowbell in apache
it's choice but gondola
it's discomfit but clayton and pegboard
it's harvest.

zaire!

invalidate a leitmotiv
elate some silvery dionysus
convey coriolanus
and contravene in basepoint lessons

expiate it's inherit, invariant demon
not zaire!

I really like this, though it pains me to admit that I like spam (even well-arranged spam). I think it's like pop art: Very meta.

I will admit to a small amount of editing - adding punctuation and line breaks and such. But all the words and (nearly) all of the phrasing is from the same spam letter.

I have no idea what they were trying to sell me...

If you like the babble:

It takes various scripts and mixes them together. You can add in your own flavor, and adjust the amounts of each.

She. A wound.

But they're all the envious moon, they really are two feet.

Very, man. Very.

For me, this line elevates it above the tawdry:

lavish some meteoric skeet, confect it dolores!

That is inspiring, job well done.

Get well soon.
