That's how I got 6/6 as well. It's less about the actual words and more about if the poem was actually talking about anything coherent.

- mfoy_ 10y agoAll the computer poems were just rambling and rhyming and weren't really even trying to say anything. A lot of the time they phrased things VERY awkwardly too, to the point of being incomprehensible.

- plaguuuuuu 10y agoAlso interesting to compare with less thematically structured work. Probably not the greatest example but what comes to my mind is some of The Mars Volta's lyrics; a lot of it is pretty abstract and stream-of-consciousness and it's hard to really pinpoint a narrative as such, compared to the example poems which were pretty straightforward "Last night I heard lepers flinch like birth defects its musk was fecal in origin as the words dribbled off of its chin it said I'm lost I'm lost Now I'm lost Dolls wreck the minced meat of pupils cast in oblong arms length the hooks have been picking their scabs where wolves hide in the company of men it said I'm lost I'm lost"
