🧵Blog Post 8: Poetry for Dogs? Oh yes, we went there.

🐾 Poetry for Dogs? Oh yes, we went there.

Have you ever heard of Poetry for Dogs?
Well, now you have.

At Fulmo, we believe creativity isn’t just for humans — dogs deserve verse too. That’s why we launched Hunda Poezio — a series dedicated to generating poetry for dogs. We even have code to generate such verse in iambic pentameter.

Whether you’re a coder, a canine, or just curious, there’s something here for you.


📦 What’s in the box?

We currently have more than one GitHub repo exploring the idea of dog-centric poetry. In fact, we even have a project going on related to generating books of haiku poetry. More than fifteen books of haiku poetry have been written — and some of the poems are for dogs.

Some haikus focus on South Asia — themed around monuments in India.

Others are on Hawaii. We even offer free, open-source code to generate verse automatically — yes, even iambic pentameter, barked out ten syllables at a time.

You can find the poetry books on Amazon and Flipkart. Want to buy a poetry book right now? Just search for “Anand Manikutty poetry” on Amazon. A few clicks and a book of poetry will be headed to your home. Yes, this is also from “the fertile imagination of Anand Manikutty”, as someone at Fulmo called it.


🧠 How does it work?

Using tools like the CMU Pronouncing Dictionary and simple stress pattern analysis, we can construct grammatically correct and metrically valid lines that follow classic poetic forms.

It’s silly. It’s serious.
It’s very possibly the future.


🐶 Want to play?

Whether you want to fork the code, train your dog to recognize sonnets, or just chuckle at the absurdity of it all, you’re warmly welcome.
