Code
The corpus directory contains text files with poems and word lists, and
Python scripts which compile these files into a model.json file.
The lib directory contains a Ruby library which reads this model.json file
and generates poems using a Queneau assembly process. A poem is
constructed by selecting the first line of a random poem, the second line of
another, and the third line of yet another.
This forms a 1–2–3 structure. Sometimes a different structure is used: for example, a 1–2–2–3 structure, in which two middle lines are taken from two different poems.
