"Content Dependent"  [Reflections On Book - 100 Ideas That Changed Graphic Design Stephen Heller and Veronique Vienne - # 34]

Some faces, way out on the edge they are,
Depend on content for their use – by far
The greatest stretch as they explicit seem
In – of themselves, like tiny faces seen.

Like “Funky Starred”, “Bifur”, and “Bistiel Bold”,
Or “Gaudy Stout” – two centuries now old;
This effort to in jest make funny face
Of type design – each sometimes finds a place.

Thanks Lord for this.
