I've created a new type of semi-random faux-memetic poetry. Here's how it works:

Step 1: You use this haiku generator:

LiveJournal Haiku!
Your name:	kleenexwoman
Your haiku:	dream the hole in space i was twice as old as i sit here tonight
Username:
Created by Grahame

to create a line. You put that line into Microsoft Excel or another grid program, putting one word in each cell on the first row of the X axis.

Step 2: Do it again, and put a sentence into the cells of the first row on the Y axis.

Obviously, these steps are just ways to get two starting sentences. Use any method you want, really. I suggest song lyrics as well, putting your playlist on shuffle and using a line.

Step 3: Fill in the blanks with interesting words to create a rectangular poem that can be read in rows or columns. It's quite challenging to try to create gramatically correct sentences.

Here is mine:



I don't know how to do tables in HTML.

By the way, you get really weird results when you Google your friends' names in a fit of loneliness. Just saying.

tables... minus spaces:

< table >
< tr >
< td >
Hello!
< /td >
< /tr >
< /table >

you begin the table, tr's are rows and td's are the cells within the rows. you can add things into the table tag like cellspacing=x and cellpadding=x where x is a pretty low number.

uhhh... i'm awesome?
