Word Ladder
This generator is inspired by a process highlighted in Jeff Tweedy's book "How to Write One Song". The idea is to generate a list of verbs and a list of nouns, and then combine them to create a word ladder. Then try to write a poem using the verb/noun combinations in the ladder.
Jeff's exercise is a little more focused. He suggests using verbs that are related (say, verbs associated with physicians) and nouns that are in your field of vision. I encourage you to try that exercise as well but for this generator, we're just going to generate random, commonly used verbs and nouns.
Here's a youtube video of someone doing the exercise
