Random Type Constraint

The Random Type Constraint involves typing on a keyboard without looking, with the goal of creating random sequences of letters. It’s best to position your fingers on the home keys to avoid typing numbers and to keep the sequences short, ideally no more than five letters in a row before adding a space.

Type random letters without glancing at the keyboard: (hint-hit the space bar, keeping words under 6 letters works best)

Ienx, soqngi oew asji iew obv wqp ien osne qo oid ghow xm z,zi bu limy tex zb ziq excm kksdu aksex mxhf qojd wisk mxbzv

Use spell check to find words from the typed sequences. If no recognizable words appear, add extra spaces to separate groups of letters:

In songs owed as awe bob wept in some so odd how my size but limy tax by zap each kudu asked mph god wise mobs

For any unclear or unwanted words, utilize a synonym tool to replace them. Avoid manual changes; rely on editing tools:

Rearrange all the words freely, utilizing punctuation as needed:

In songs owed by way of awe bob wept in some accordingly odd how my size but citrus duty by zap each kudu asked mph god wise mobs

Rearrange all the words freely, utilizing punctuation as needed:

Bob wept in awe
by way of some odd songs
by Kudu-Zap-MPH,
but my wise mobs asked God
how each owed duty
accordingly in citrus size.

Note: It can be quite a challenge to craft coherent poetry using random words! However, this method adds an exciting layer of creativity to the writing process.
