Darwinian Poetry

For some time now, participants at the Darwinian Poetry website (link
follows), have been voting on somewhat random strings of words/phrases.
These "poems" basically started off as a jumble of nonsensical
phrases, but those that receive votes are allowed to "mate" with others
or mutate (bringing in a new word here or there). Although still in its
infancy, several "species" have developed and 15 generations have come
about. One of my favorites is:
*women unknown and
*thousand flown always without heard
*be like with shroud
*miserable
*
*life in what eyes shall go divine
Almost makes sense, doesn't it?
Well, participation has dropped off and thus this posting. If you have

p.s. some of my favorite evolved phrases:
"love pumping tractor" & "thumping penguins"
