Advancing the Palindrome: Aelindromes
One of the better-known forms of recreational wordplay, the palindrome is also among the most restrictive. This is the story of how, in trying to modify its shackles, I uncovered a world of new palindromic possibilities — creating the “aelindrome”.
Anthony Etherin is an experimental formalist poet and musician who specialises in working under strict procedural constraints. The inventor of several new literary restrictions, his poetry also combines traditional poetic forms with established alphabetical constraints, such as palindromes and anagrams. His books include Knit Ink (and Other Poems) (Deep Vellum, 2024). He frequently posts poetry on X @Anthony_Etherin, and on BlueSky and Substack @anthonyetherin. He lives on the border of England and Wales.
