  2. How do they change the words to rhyme so that it makes a poem?

  4. Their algorithm filters tweets for iambic pentameter, and then takes the eligible tweets and tests them for rhyming. I'm not making this up. It's quite ingenious.

  5. Some of them are kinda cute, in a slice-of-life sort of way. I don't think actual poets have anything to fear, however.
