HOMPHONIC DISPLACEMENT

EXAMPLE
Poe: The Raven (first stanza)
Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered weak and weary, Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore, While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping, As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door. `'Tis some visitor,' I muttered, `tapping at my chamber door - Only this, and nothing more.'

Won sup animate knighted rarely, walleye pawn dared weekend whirly, Oberon equate anchor Ios vow loom offer goat end lure, Walleye knotted, ear lean zapping, suds and leather K-mart sapling, Ass loathsome pungent lira ping, raw ping atom eye shame bored ore. Listen Vichy tore I’m utter data ping, raw ping atom eye shame bored ore - Own leaves isn’t ant note ink moor.

April


Das ist die Drossel, die da schlägt,
Der Frühling, der mein Herz bewegt;
Ich fühle, die sich hold bezeigen,
Die Geister aus der Erde steigen.
                   Das Leben fließet wie ein Traum –
Mir ist wie Blume, Blatt und Baum.

Theodor Storm



April


Thus is the dross althea the slaked,
They’re through ling, they’re mine, hearts be waked;
If fully thee sick, hold, besieging,
The guy stir Ouse there, err the staging.
Thus leave and flee said we, eye and trow’em –
Mere is twee bloom a bletted poem.

  1. From a news article:

    The jittery mood in the markets reflects the fear that the turmoil of the past five years – the sub-prime crisis, the near-death experience of the banks, the deepest slump since the Great Depression, the sovereign debt crisis – is about to reach a climax over the coming months with a battle for the euro's very survival.

    After passes N+7 + N+13:

    The jittery moron in the martins reflects the female that the turmoil of the past five yes-mangers – the sub-prime cross, the near-decimal express of the barbers, the deepest smoke since the Great Designer, the sparrow decorator cross – is about to reach a clod over the commitment moratoriums with a beanpole for the euro's very sweatband.

  2. I ran your homophonic displacement text through Google Translate, going English to Dutch to German to Latin to Italian to French to English and here is the result:

    Ninja Reflex typing speed
    The way of slander
    teenagers ruin beer
    limit,
    all of Jersey off the meal
    annual high
    Sing in the dark, holding eggs
    require that a small loss of economic pest of tea
    KISS demolition of Samoa easier ironing machine,
    or deck and despair,
    hatred, or the opposite -
    fizzled rowing boats, each glowing
    Dover thickness
    omission meant more speed
    the field will dry up, waving the pink sweater
    variable is prohibited.

  3. 81. F. P. Ramsey hat einmal im Gespräch mit mir betont, die Logik sei eine ›normative Wissenschaft‹ Genau welche Idee ihm dabei vorschwebte, weiß ich nicht; sie war aber zweifellos eng verwandt mit der, die mir erst später aufgegangen ist: daß wir nämlich in der Philosophie den Gebrauch der Wörter oft mit Spielen, Kalkülen nach festen Regeln, vergleichen, aber nicht sagen können, wer die Sprache gebraucht, müsse ein solches Spiel spielen.
