Verbatim pieces of real text that fit into classic poetic forms.

I wrote a Python program to search a large body of text by meter and rhyme. Given a target rhyme scheme and text corpus, I went through the possible lines and assembled them verbatim into poems.

You can see examples of ballads, couplets, limericks, and sonnets from a handful of sources like wine reviews, @dril tweets, Shakespeare lines, New York Times headlines, and Trump tweets.
