Ever fancied being able to write like Dylan? Sadly we can't offer you literary greatness, but our random poem generator might help a little.

The drowning birds of the sea
The wise eyes in flesh,
Burning by the loudly playful morning
For shamed goosefield blaze
With no more tides than the truant boy
It's said that if an infinite number of monkeys were each given typewriters for an infinite number of years, they'd come up with the complete works of William Shakespeare. We wondered if the same would apply to the works of Dylan Thomas.
However, being sceptical about the idea of monkey literature, we looked instead for a more efficient way to amuse ourselves. And so the Dylan Thomas random poem generator was born.
Simply hit the link to make a new poem, which will appear below. We can't guarantee it'll make sense, but the results can certainly be interesting!
