How this works

A love note, a birthday wish, a line from a song: give us the idea or type it yourself, and a Poem Pro types it on real artist paper, 3 by 4½ inches, and mails it anywhere in the world.

Prompt mode: tell us what it should be about, and a style if you like. A Poem Pro writes it in their own words.

Pro mode: type it yourself, and we type your words word for word. Like the real thing: the bell rings near the end of a line, and at the margin you press “Return.” Nothing can be erased: just backspace, and the next letter strikes over the one there. To type somewhere else on the paper, tap there. To look over what you’ve typed, roll the paper: scroll, or drag it up and down with a finger. Start over sends the paper to the discards pile, where you can pick it back up.
