Lipogram
Another Oulipian technique
The text is constrained by excluding a particular letter, usually a
vowel.
The little grey mouse bumped into the huge,
sleeping, yellow lion in the forest. Unwisely, he climbed up onto the lion,
crowing: “Snoozy old lions do not bother us mice!” The lion, by now not sleepy,
but wired, held the mouse down. His mouth drooling, thinking of his dinner.
The mouse begged for its life, “Don’t kill me. In time I will help you!”
The lion, finding this thought
ridiculous, let the mouse go.
The next morning, the mouse does indeed help the lion, who is in a
hunter’s net. The mouse chewed through the rope. The lion is reprieved, he couldn’t
believe it: “You wonderful mouse!”
I have an ‘a’ – just one! Can you help me out? Can you Change that
sentence?
