We'd like to exercise our attentiveness to the random and unexpected:

• each person in class will work with one random poetry generator below
  
• each person in class will create a poem, either a found poem spit out whole by one of the generators using your input or a poem built out of the best lines from several random poems built using your input
  
• each person will complete his/her poem in fifteen minutes
  
• each person will perform his/her poem to the class

That's it. Good Luck.
