So why hasn’t anyone created a “Web Poet Machine”, I’m not saying being a poet is easy and can be replicated by a machine, what I am saying is this sounds like a cool app to write.
The process could be:
1. You type in a word or two
2. You choose a poem type
3. http://thesaurus.reference.com/ is used to get Synonyms and Antonyms
4. These words are then plumbed into Google
5. Millions of pages get returned and phrases get extracted from the pages
6. Rhyming pairs are found
7. The phrases are then ordered into the poem type/pattern
Could it work, sure – would it be any good? As good as any random number lottery generator could be I suppose!
