asemic writing

A form of visual poetry constructed entirely of invented letters or characters
and, thereby, having no literal semantic meaning. (The first few sheets
contained nothing that held any interest for me, but eventually I designed a
couple of sheets of asemic writing that I found interesting enough not to
discard.) (On each sheet of paper, I found the most careful and controlled
asemic writing I’ve ever encountered.)
