Letting the tool write the poem

[rayheinrich]

That's an interesting response, I'm not sure why you think* comprehension is for prose alone, but I'll think about it.

The phrase "neither rhyme nor reason" comes to mind.
Some wag is always making fun of poetry's inconceivable logic.

The poetry I love has comprehensible, coherent levels of meaning.
That these meanings may be in conflict and lead to confusion is fine
with me, this makes for a complex and thought-provoking poem.
The key here, what separates a poem like this from illogical mush,
is in how well it conveys the meanings that are the basis of the conflict.


Of course I don't think about it; if I thought about it I'd run screaming.
