Bonus sonnet: by K. Silem Mohammad, a project called Sonnagrams, of which he writes: \u201cMy process for composing sonnagrams is as follows: I feed one of Shakespeare\u2019s sonnets into an internet anagram engine, generating fourteen lines of text that is quantitatively equivalent to Shakespeare\u2019s poem at the level of the letter. I then rearrange this text, clicking and dragging letter by letter until I have a new English sonnet. All leftover letters are used to make up a title.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
