Creating computer poetry with Python.

Project Goals

Procedural poetry is a type of writing that emphasizes the process of creating a work. One common example of procedural poetry is erasure poetry, which deletes words from a text to yield a poem. This project will contain a number of scripts to generate different types of poetry using Python. So far, I have written scripts for random erasure poems as well as Markov-generator poems.

Eventually, this project will be migrated to a website to allow anyone to use it to create poetry.
