What do you call a poem whose words a writtenlikethis?

The words arebunchuptogetherlikethis! What is that style of writing called?

Update:

It's not language of "the stupid," maybe you're a little uneducated.

I read a lot of poetry also...the purpose of the style of writing is for the poem to be read quickly. That is the purpose of the style. I just can not recall the name.

    I am not sure what the style is called, but I imagine there is a term for it in creative writing circles. My first thought was of E. E. Cummings' poetry. He seemed to enjoy being boldly different, so here's some info that you might enjoy and find relevant to your question:

    Edward Estlin Cummings was a poetic mastermind who focused on the individual and rejected what he perceived “the small mindedness of mostpeople.” If a reader can get past the typographic obstacles which dart at them while reading Cummings’ poetry and focus intently enough to see the true genius behind every strategically placed word, they will discover an uncharted sea of intelligence, insight, perspective, and fresh metaphor.http://www.exampleessays.com/viewpaper/27261.html

    A full-time artist, a novelist, a playwright, an "nonlecturer," E. E. Cummings was, most importantly, a poet. His poetry is known for its eccentric style, its unusual typography and spellings, and deliberate misuse of grammatical structure. He experimented with the "rhythm of the phrase" discovered by Walt Whitman and called the "variable foot" by poet William Carlos Williams. In many ways, Cummings is a traditional poet, especially in his love poems and his celebration of families, parents, children, values. His visual patterns of words are consistent with the movement toward "break up and restructuring" used as a revolt against realism in art and in writing.http://www.csustan.edu/english/reuben/pal/chap7/cu...

    ~if you like my poems let them~ by E. E. Cummings

    if you like my poems let them

    walk in the evening,a little behind you

    then people will say

    "Along this road i saw a princess pass

    on her way to meet her lover(it was

    toward nightfall)with tall and ignorant servants."

    I've been reading poetry for 15 years. I have never seen poetry written as you describe.
