"Mon sa me el kirimoor,
Ve dice kor, korrand ve deer
Leet vire or sand vite,
Re sive tas tor;

Rozan dire ras to por tantor,

Bas ber vind can sor, gosham,
Mon sa me el, a som on oor."

computers but can "pass" as written by humans.

Jean Toomer - Sound Poem (I)
"Mon sa me el kirimoor,
Ve dice kor, korrand ve deer
Leet vire or sand vite,
Re sive tas tor;
Tu tas tire or re sim bire
Rozan dire ras to por tantor,
Dorozire, soron,
Bas ber vind can sor, gosham,
Mon sa me el, a som on oor."
