Head on over tothis siteand it’ll transport you to the web’s fridge wall, complete with loads of magnets folks have already popped on there and arranged to create poetry. At the bottom right, you can generate your own words, too. All you have to do is drag a word around and plop it next to any others, rearranging existing poems or creating your own. And what’s really nice is that you can see other people’s cursors as they go about their business, before they disappear into the ether.
Someone immediately dashed my work, hopping in to unpick my poem before leaving (fair enough). So I left another poem later, simply entitled: rock, paper, shotgun. And just as I did so, someone else generated the word “frotnite” and positioned it above “fortnite” in what was a rather beautiful thing that happened in real time.
Other poems on the door at the time of writing:
Yeah, I really like that last one.
