PhD of modern poetree

We must know all fundamentals of poetry
but never follow them
400 years ago they had all the time
from early darkness to twilight of dawn
they scratched for syllables all along
so that they could sleep over well

today the world is so different
computer guys have created poetry evaluators
and
now I overheard last night
a poetry systemised computer curve is coming

what will poets then do
just sleep

all I know about haiku is
it's about Japanese nature
and
a sonnet as I said before is
ab ab cdcd efef and gg =14 lines in all
in fact any poetry
beyond 19 lines
almost becomes prose
many reading or listening to it
go off and dose
