Years ago I made a "poetry generator" web app stylized like a piece of music synthesizer gear (an "Angst Modulator"). In the "filters" section I had an "ee cummings" filter that removed punctuation and made everything lower case.

(All the silly thing did was chain together stanzas randomly based on subjective "scores" I'd given to each stanza and the position of the "knobs" the user set for various "feelings". It was a fun gimmick 30 years ago. God. I'm old...)

I did that in grade school. The teacher wasn't impressed.
