I love the idea of a verse machine lol. I imagine something like an AI! You describe the frustration of trying to write a poem very well. I enjoyed your rhymes throughout. Good luck!

This is such a potentially clever poem. I love what you are saying here, but I don't understand the word, 'fizzent'? Unfortunately this is an essential word for your last clever rhyme. Hmm. Your poem, I guess!

    Thank you for your kind words. Frizzent isn't. I just made it up to make the rhyme, and it sounds right.

This is very nice. The only thing, if I may suggest, is a slight rewrite on that last end rhyme. To prevent repeating the same word.

notes:

At times there are gaps, and your instinct craps when you find that there just isn't one.

At times there are gaps, and your instinct craps, then you find out this isn't fun.
