The Poetburo of the Peoples Repubublic of Poetry, instructed the Ministry of
Extraordinary Affairs to develop a proto-typo-graphical attack artcraft, 
armed with air-to-air stanzas, and able to withstand all forms of 
multimediocrity. The following was the result:

                          wrecreation

Once the proto-typo-graphical attack artcraft was tested and stabilized, the
Creative Intelligence Agency began to stealthilize it to optimize its
verse-ability in airy nothings. As units of verse of the unitverse, the
artcraft was modified for specialized functions, eg.: to waste banality in
the anticipated and imminent Word War III.

The attack artcraft was destined to play a major role not just for the 
defence of the City Dedicated to the Democratic Death of Dictatorshit, but
for the destruction of the City Dedicated to the Dictatorial Death of
Democracy.

The Politburo, mandated to defend mediocrity, instructed the Ministry of
Ordinary Affairs to develop a proto-typo-graphical attack craft,
armed with air-to-air binary banality, and able to repress all forms of
of artistic endeavour. The following was the result:

                              name NUMBER
datadatadatadatadatadatadata <nameNUMBER
                              namNUMBER
                              naNUMBER
                              nNUMBER
                              NaMBER
                         NUMB NAMBER NAMBER NUMBER
                              NaMBER
                              nNUMBER
                              naNUMBER
                              namNUMBER
datadatadatadatadatadatadata <nameNUMBER
                              name NUMBER

Once the proto-typo-graphical attack craft was tested and stabilized, the
Centralized Intelijence Agency began to conform it to optimize its
adverse-ability in airy nothings. As units of adverse of the unitverse, the
artcraft was modified for specialized functions, eg.: to waste spontaneus 
creativity in the anticipated and imminent Word War III.

The attack craft was destined to play a major role not just for the 
defence of the City Dedicated to the Dictatorial Death of Democracy, but
for the destruction of the City Dedicated to the Democratic Death of
Dictatorshit.

For a brief period of historical time antidemocratic farces in Hungary
developed a cruel proto-typo-graphical aero-prose to repress any spontaneous
serendipity with cadences of liberty. This is what was developed:

zsarolzsarolozsarolzsarolzsarolzsarol<ZSARNOKI
                                      SZARNOKsag


This was safely countered by a specialized proto-typo-graphical artcraft
developed for the flights of fancy engaged by FALUDY, George and co. This
is what that artcraft looked like.

This was not the end of the creative forces that not only defended Poetry.
The mandate was openly offensive. The forces of banality, multi-mediocrity
and repression were to be crushed permanently, perpetually. So the following
artcraft was developed to supplement the rest:

                      LIFE Sense
                      LIE Sense
                      LIesence

                      LIesence
                      LIE Sense
                      LIFE Sense

This is not the end.
