Review
This game puts you in the roles of a corporate office jockey in a soulless dystopia where all art, including poetry, must be removed.
You sort things into 'facts' and 'poetry' and delete the poetry.
A strange messenger appears and lets you save some words of the poetry, which you can rearrange into your own poems. The deletion process proceeds in real time, so you have to click fast to save them.
The whole game lasts about 9 in-game days.
I found the setting interesting, and liked the poem making mechanic. The real-time event wasn't my favorite (I like IF precisely because it doesn't have real time events) but it was pretty forgiving and adjustable.
Overall, a fun concept, and I liked the Shakespeare quotes. I feel like a lot of the game was spoken in generalities, when I might have preferred more specifics, but perhaps a blank canvas was intended.
These are the poems I made (although I copped out on the last line of the last one):

their den in the light smells Like a gray shadow of the night

Some Verses blind
may I become blind
may the day become knives.

Every pulse

He thinks Every secret
When fairy numbers didn't pulse
