Ioueay Oiseaux is a series of univocalic and lipogrammatic poems expressing the dual nature of existence, the material and the metaphysical. The word "ioueay" is the shortest word used in English containing all six vowels meaning "like an iouea", which is a type of fossil sponge, or a cretaceous coup. It's juxtaposed against the French word "oiseaux" meaning "birds", creating an image of creatures that are both deep under water and high up in the sky simultaneously.
