The mind tries to solve the problem of fitting consonants around the naked vowels and words suggest themselves which otherwise never might "He is at odds/ with the sunshine" transforms into "set, icy atolls / pile up inert." Because if this sudden, unexpected beauty it is a more thrilling translation to actually work with than more prosaic, problem-solving ones such as a lipogram in e. Does this set up an intuitive constraint / logical constraint opposition?
