The inspiration for this show: http://www.nightvalepresents.com/startwiththis

Consume: Read Ballad in A by Cathy Park Hong. Try to read it aloud if you can!

Then check out this short feature article on Cathy Park Hong and her use of the univocalic.

Create: Write a 4-line, rhyming, univocalic poem. That means you pick a vowel and use only that vowel when you write.

A

A cad, calls cat, cracks bats at tack

Tracks slack pants at camp.

A man, says cat, taps back a hat

Has a damn mad clapback.

E

The men tell her three trees bleed

Reverent she sees resplendent scenes

Ends meet when green beds sleep

Events flee them where seeds keep

I

In this third trip I trick him

Fish in thin film flip it

Tipping it till it sings in fifty

Thrifty strings spilling things

O

Dog stood on top of stoop to frown

Blood flows soon slow down

Brown dog took down two Crooks

Town Clown soon too shook

U

Bumpy Stump chucks grubs, slugs

Must flush up stunk plus puss

Stump puts up stuff, crud, cuss

Pump Stump mucks pulp mush
