Once upon a midnight dreary, as I pondered weak and weary how nice it would be to read new poems by one of my favorite poets, Edgar Allan Poe... I decided to use the power of neural networks to generate new poems, based on the style of Poe's original ones.
I used my web-scraper to scrape poems from here, which I then fed into a LSTM neural network. The model achieved ~80% accuracy and generated some more-or-less readable POEms, like:
ah night of all nights
in the year and untruest above
how song above my first door of it
is it be the whispered word
