Contemporary poetry appears in a diverse range of forms and medial constellations: in spoken word events live on stage, on audio CDs – spoken by the poets themselves or by professional speakers, at times accompanied by music or beats –, in YouTube videos, as entertaining ‘poetry clips,’ as artistic poetry films in art installations in museums, public spaces or the cinema.

Sign language poetry is the ultimate form of aesthetic signing, in which the form of language used is as important as or even more important than the message. Like so much poetry in any language, sign language poetry is a means of expressing ideas unusually succinctly, through means of heightened "art" language.

In this paper, we propose a novel two-stage poetry generating method which first plans the sub-topics of the poem according to the user’s writing intent, and then generates each line of the poem sequentially, using a modified recurrent neural network encoder-decoder framework. The proposed planningbased method ...
