  4. A calligram is "a word or piece of text in which the design and layout of the letters creates a visual image related to the meaning of the words themselves", as defined by oxford dictionary.

  5. A very fine calligram, but it seems that when your fingers (keyboard) began to write, the words and shape came!

  7. Concrete poetry does much the same thing... Words form a shaped image on the page. It would be interesting to see your words here form the shape of a question mark, perhaps...
