    XD…oh my gosh. I think the Poet-Bot would also feel rejected after analyzing all that.

    “It may concern sincere regret to inform: Appreciate crap at this time!”

    Sounds like a financial-crisis-speech from any world leader, right about now!

    “it may concern crap at this time to inform: appreciate sincere regret” ?

    I think Doug, you should decide which poem was better, or let us fight to death inside a cage to decide who’s better !!, or you can send poet-bot back to the past and avoid john Connor becoming the leader of human resistance.

    Wow! What a response. Who knew you had so many followers that were closet poets. Bravo to all those who responded!

    A poem entitled
    “Failed Marriage Proposal”

    At this time… appreciate!
    - At this time to inform regret.
    At this time!?
    - Appreciate it may concern…
    It may concern regret???!?
    - Appreciate sincere regret…
    Sincere Regret?
    - Appreciate…
    Crap.

    Seriously, this can’t be any worse than those Magnetic Poetry kits.

    Cool Prompt! The best rejection slip I ever got was from a magazine that I sent a poem to. It read: This is NOT Poetry!
