With gleeful pursuit of the ludic pleasure of word games (acrostic, anagram, homophone, parody, and pun) as well as reflections on the politics of language and dialect, this work collects poems that are inspired or influenced by a technique of the international literary avant-garde group Oulipo, a dictionary game called S+7 or N+7.
