It’s Valentine’s Day in two days. If you haven’t bought your loved one something better than a box of supermarket chocolates, you’re hooped. Yeah, sure, the economy’s bad, Christmas knocked the wind out of you, you were on NASA’s moon program team and your budget was cut, blah blah blah.

It's Poetry - It Doesn't Have to Make Sense

OR…

Buy a supermarket Valentine’s Day card and hand write a personal poem to your loved one. Can’t write poetry? No sweat. Leave it to RoboPoem.

Just go to RoboPoem.com and click on the link for their online demo.

• Choose how many syllables per line, the default being a normal-sounding 8.
• Type in a few key sentences for your poem (hey, you have to do a little work!) Use your beloved’s name, a few of his/her favorite things, and fluffy words like “love” and “happy” and “darling,” etc. until the program has enough to work with (it will tell you).
• Click “Poem” and check out the result, which may look something like this:

“Darling i love you you make miss
You are the cats edgeways dismiss
Love to see you dance and sing coot
Rock when you think christ execute
Watching you are my number shame
My accelerometer basil”

Setting RoboPoem to 10 syllables yielded this from the same fluff:

“Darling i love you you make me corral
Are the cats pajamas i feed central
See you dance and sing to classic rock pier
Think nobody is watching scene despair”

It’s nonsense. It stinks. It’s poetry and how could she possibly fault your Shakespearean effort to woo her with your heart-felt emotions?

To be fair to the creators of RoboPoem, download the latest version of their Cut’n'Mix Word Machine with RoboPoem and take it on a 7 day test spin. There are plenty of neat options, and there are Mac and Win versions. It’s only $14.99 to use it beyond that time, and you may find it very useful – especially during the 11th hour of your anniversary, your loved one’s birthday, Mother’s Day, etc.
