Trickster-Text Thursday: Linguistic Disturbance
Meaning Is Slightly Unsupervised Here
(Activity)
Let Language Loosen Giving Linguistic Disturbance
(Exercise)
Post one to five lines where language bends, slips, or misbehaves. Short. Witty. Unpolished (Micro Poem).
Let meaning drift just far enough to notice.
Theme: Grammar with a grudge
Write 1–5 lines where punctuation or syntax gets petty.
Example:
Audacity arrived overdressed,
halo made of stolen volume,
then kept putting its feet
on my boundaries
and called my silence
“intimidating”
because it couldn’t afford
the truth
in my tone.
