Poem Simulator is an FPS that simulates the abstract process of poem-crafting. The user is invited to explore the ontological debris of a dreamy, semantically-ordered universe, suspending objects from three floating cubes, each representing a resultant stanza. Through arbitrary selection, a new poem-object is born: experiences reshuffle, ideas forcibly enmesh, sub-syntactic counter-currents reverse their course. The user will find this process pleasurable and noteworthy.
