Digital found poem is a free random poetry generator for Windows that tosses tens of thousands of snippets of language into the air, then rearranges them programmatically into millions of combinations of syntactically varied and semantically believable poetic text.
Besides perhaps being of interest to established poets who just want to see an example of how a computer can be used to try to write poems in a non-AI way, digital found poem can also be used as a warm-up exercise by students in an introductory poetry-writing class or workshop. For those just starting to learn how to write poetry, digital found poem provides an endless supply of text they can try to shape and mold into effective found poems. Not for everybody, of course. But for some who are just beginning, thirty minutes of playing with actual text may be a more enjoyable way to start each writing day than to have to start with that proverbial blank page and hoping that somehow the words will come.
The user interface (UI) of digital found poem looks as follows. Click the generate new poetic text button and you'll get completely new text to peruse or play with.
Digital found poem is intended for a mature audience. Its dark and adult themes make it inappropriate for those too young for that.
Digital found poem is an extremely simple, single-file text editor that won't add cookies, mess with your registry, or collect any personal information. If you download it and it's not to your liking, you can delete it with a single click.
Note Digital found poem is programmed for Windows PCs/tablets only and won't work on mobile phones. And it will only work on a Mac and other operating systems if they can run Windows.
