My “Impossible” Poetry Challenge
The rules and conditions I set myself for these challenges. You can try the, selves and see what you come up with.
If you want to take part in my poetry challenge here are the general rules I have set.
Rules
- You can use any word you want. I reccomend trying one with 7+ letters.
- Only words that can be formed using the original word can be used.
- Letters can be repeated and reused.
- The final poem cannot be generated with AI.
- It’s okay to use sites that generate words with letters.
Sources & Tips
- I always find it handy to have a good notebook nearby
- I often use Wordmaker to give me ideas of what words I can use.
- This site is a good one to use as well.
- I think this site works the best, because I also like how it gives you a definition.
- I find that it also helps me list down what letters I can and cannot use.
- It can be fun trying to do as many forms of poetry you can think off.

The Forgotten Hero 💔
On January 6, 2014, in a small town of Pakistan, history was written not by a soldier, not by a leader, but by a 15-year-old schoolboy named Aitzaz Hasan. He was an ordinary student with ordinary dreams, carrying his school bag and walking toward his school like thousands of other children do every day. But that day, Aitzaz did something extraordinary. He chose courage over fear, sacrifice over safety, and humanity over his own life.
