'''{{tp|sitelen sitelen}}''' ([[initialism]]: '''{{tp|ss}}'''), also known as '''{{tp|sitelen suwi}}''', is a {{w|Logography|logographic}} writing system for [[Toki Pona]], created by [[Jonathan Gabel]] ({{tok|jan Josan Kapo}}) around 2006.<ref name="kama-pona">[[Gabel, Jonathan]] (n.d.). [https://www.jonathangabel.com/toki-pona/kama-pona/ "Welcome - {{tok|kama pona}}"]. ''jonathangabel.com''. Retrieved 23 October 2023.</ref> It is one of the two constructed writing systems featured in the book {{pu|en}}, alongside {{tp|[[sitelen pona]]}}. The overall style of {{tp|sitelen sitelen}} was inspired by United States west-coast {{w|comix}} and East Coast {{w|graffiti}}, while the word shapes themselves are often taken from hieroglyphs or religious symbols.<ref>Gabel, Jonathan (n.d.).

{{tp|sitelen sitelen}} is non-linear in nature. Rather ofthan a straight row, words are arranged in blocks reminiscent of comic strips. [[Prepositions]] and part-of-sentence marking [[particle]]s wrap around their contents, similarly to {{tp|sitelen pona}}'s cartouches.
