(As usual, this is for my poetry class and the assignment was to write a nonsensical poem. I figured, for most folks, leetspeak was pretty nonsensical)

Love the edit: a typo in leetspeak. Is that even possible?

what is a leet anyway? can someone explain?

FYI the poem reads:

It seems as if nothing is here at all,
but in the mind of any twelve year old
reading plaintext just makes skin want to crawl.
So accept that you'd better learn this code.

If you are still lost, you are slow as molasses;
and, if you can read this, you need new glasses.

I was able to read it, I just don't know what leet, or 1337 or presumably 133+ means.

Is there a 133+ to English dictionary for us old folks?

And good poem too... I liked how the subject matter is directly relating to the form. Very well done.

This isn't a dictionary per se, but it will translate any English into leetspeak for you.

Ahh, so 1337 (leet) is a contraction of elite - never actually bothered finding that one out before!

Yes, and leet is derived from elite. It's sad that I know these things, for sure.
