Ten million palindromic sonnets

This poem stems from seventy hand-written pairs of lines, arranged in seven groups of ten. Each sonnet combines one pair from each group, yielding ten million possible sonnets, in a manner analogous to Raymond Queneau’s Cent mille milliards de poèmes.

Open a sonnet at random or touch a line to explore its variations. Its complement changes with it, preserving the sonnet’s symmetry. Each combination has its own number.
