Bitmap Alphabet

This is one of my typography assignments-create your own bitmap alphabet. We only had to do the first 6 letters, thank goodness. I may have gone a little crazy doing any more. But, I must say, I like my cute little letters.

Palin's Sentences

I've been pretty quiet on the political front. At least, on my blog. Talking to me in real life is quite another story!

Anyway, if you didn't know, Sarah Palin makes me vomit. So, Diagramming Sarah was really funny.

Today's Letter: M

Our crazy assignment for Typography this week was to research any letter of the alphabet and write something. After much deliberation, I decided M was the best-yes, mainly because of my name. But here's why Melissa should not be given such broad, and odd topics:


M is for Me

day thirteen: under
the cypress she seeks
meaning, truths

about affection,
a way to believe

but tarot cards reveal
the Hanged Man
and for thirteen hours

suspension: upside down
mulling over Ms:

bones malleable
under his weight,
a Midwest drawl

to make him swoon,
masturbating,

mistake, marriage,
Mrs.

day thirteen: along
currents of the Nile
she murmurs in his ear

use both lips
together,

air over tongue,
constrict airflow,
vibrate vocal cords

and you’ll know Me
