Text inspector - counts the syllables and finds the rhyme scheme
This is a really handy java applet for either working out the type of poem you may be attempting to work out or for those of you who write poetry and want to stick to closed forms like the sonnet. It counts the syllables for you and will also tell you what rhyming scheme you've used.
Incredibly useful for poets and critics alike.
You could also use it for ensuring your obscene limericks scan properly.

Hmm...
Now I'm considering if the government could tax poetry. Perhaps it could work rather like the window tax back in the 18th century....
TS Elliot would have been fucked.
Haiku writers would be laughing - especially if there was a personal allowance.
This all sounds terribly 1984ish.
It could work.
