Oooh, I dig it. The blues tracks you linked make for a groovy experience. I'm curious to know what lies beneath the surface in how you hook up the lines, but for now, I'll enjoy playing around to see what grows from it.

Take care 

instead of this flower pot of old

take care like the apple of your eye

it's worth fortune in the antiques shop

In the photo: warm scarf, sad eyes

isn't that enough for happiness?

Thank you for the comment!

I'm really glad you enjoyed our game!
As for hooking the lines, it was a sort of improvisational interactive fiction writing exercise for the two of us. It went like this: one person would write the line, than another would write two or three possible developments for this line, then the first person would write two or three possible developments for each of these lines, etc. As you would imagine, number of branches quickly grew out of control, so we had to make some cuts and leave our poem relatively short. 

And this process ate like 80% of our development time :)

Oh neat, that sounds like a lot of fun. Could be a simple game with friends all on its own.

Thank you for sharing!

Your welcome!

It was a lot of fun to a point where we created loads of branches and managing them all become really toilsome and exhausting. So in case you'll decide to play this game with friends, be sure to limit your scope or it will grow out of proportions really fast :)

Having a structure before hand like 4 line ABAB or a haiku or sonnet might do well to help creatively constrain the process.

Yes! This was my thinking too.
