acrographic Poetics is a style of poetry
designed by Jiivanii RedMarks. The essence of
Macrographic Poetry is to elucidate and brings
to prominence, a single point of interest
in a five-word phrase, whilst making it poetically and visually exciting and
extravagant. The Poem can be an original idea or an extract of a novel or any
book, reconstructed to form a macrographic poem. Attribution must be applied
to the source of the inspiration if taken from a source not the authors.
Macrographic Poetry is characterized by the following qualities: A Poem that
contains a one-word title, which establishes the mood; the body of the poem is
structured using only five words of any syllabic value; one or all the five words
of the poem can be used as a phrase, allowing a maximum number of five lines
or five phrases in a poem; the most important point, subject, word or letter in
the piece, is written in full-caps and is also magnified by a minimum of three
and a maximum ten times the rest of the supporting text; the traditional goldenmean ratio is employed in deciding the layout of the words, thus creating a
litteratura which is also visually stimulating and be considered and use as an
artistic image.
Macrographic Poems can we typed using interesting unconventional fonts, or
crafted manually using calligraphy. The caveat is that, the poem must be visually
as well as intellectually, pleasing or challenging. Macrographic Poetry is an
expression in creative visuals and amplified literary value, combined to form
the art of Macrographic Visual Poetics. Please be creative and experiment at
your heart’s content. The following pages will establish examples of the rule and
the effective breaking of the rules.
