365.0. "In the spring a young man's fancy ..." by IOSG::DEMORGAN () Mon Jun 15 1987 06:50
The following is a computer-written sonnet.
It was produced by a computer at Cambridge
University, England several years ago.
Richard De Morgan.
-------------------------------------------
How can the purple yeti be so red,
Or chestnuts, like a widgeon, calmly groan?
No sheep is quite as crooked as a bed,
Though chickens ever try to hide a bone.
I grieve that greasy turnips slowly march:
Indeed, inflated is the icy pig:
For as the alligator strikes the larch,
So sighs the grazing goldfish for a wig.
Oh, has the pilchard argued with a top?
Say never that the parsnip is too weird!
I tell thee that a wolf-man will not hop
And no man ever praised the convex beard.
Effulgent is the day when bishops turn:
So let not then the doctor wake the urn!

>So let not then the doctor wake the urn!
So! The computer's been reading H. P. Lovecraft's _The Case of
Charles Dexter Ward_ again, eh???

intellegence taking over our jobs just yet, eh? :-)
