A user scrolls through a Twitter feed.Bloomberg via Getty Images by [Samantha Grossman](https://time.com/author/samantha-grossman/) ## Samantha Grossman Jan 28, 2015 6:32 PM UTC Some people already seem to think tweeting is an art form — and a new website wants to take your 140-character quips and turn them into real, bona fide poetry. This wonderful tool, called [Poetweet](http://poetweet.com.br/?lang=en), will simply scan your tweets and turn them into one of three poetic forms: either a sonnet, a rondel or an indriso. All you do is plug in your Twitter handle, choose the form you prefer and then sit back and wait for magical, poetic glory to emerge. I tested it out with[ my personal Twitter account](https://twitter.com/sam%5Fgrossman) and got some interesting results. It’s not the _best_ poem, necessarily, but my co-workers seem to think it captures my essence pretty well: **American Listicle** by Samantha Grossman _Same_ _PLAY BY THE RULES_ _Of human emotion at a Knicks game_ _One shiba who smiles about bubbles_ _I was on the edge of my seat!_ _First place at Mean Girls trivia_ _10/10 would eat_ _Have been posted on Facebook. via_ _Including two run-by fruitings._ _Stop saying “screenshotted”_ _You’re missing important things_ _And Darth’s head!_ _For Ebola in New York City. Welp._ _Offering laptop batteries instead?_ Try it for yourself [here](http://poetweet.com.br/?lang=en), but don’t expect to feel like the next Wordsworth. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/3686122/twitter-poetry-website/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/3686122/twitter-poetry-website/"},"headline":"This Website Will Turn Your Tweets Into Beautiful, Ridiculous Poems","datePublished":"2015-01-28T18:32:02.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:16:20.475Z","description":"Shall I compare thy Twitter feed to a summer's day?","url":"https://time.com/3686122/twitter-poetry-website/","keywords":["Newsfeed","Internet"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt455cf59f65a68adf/69869f3a06f2c18366330495/twitter-clarifies-bot-statistic.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Samantha Grossman","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/samantha-grossman/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt455cf59f65a68adf/69869f3a06f2c18366330495/twitter-clarifies-bot-statistic.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Twitter Says 23 Million of Its Users Are Not Actually Bots","caption":"Twitter Says 23 Million of Its Users Are Not Actually Bots","creditText":"Bloomberg via Getty Images","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/3686122/twitter-poetry-website/","name":"This Website Will Turn Your Tweets Into Beautiful, Ridiculous Poems"}}]}] ```
