The Power of If (Interlude II)

Filed under gaps + thoughts

You are bigger than life’s ifs.
When turning the poem If into a word cloud, I was pleased to see that the word You is just as big as the word If.

You are bigger than life's ifs!

You are bigger than life's ifs!

I created the word cloud using Wordle. I first processed the poem with a script I wrote. Then I fed the output into Wordle’s Advanced Settings. My script provided custom word filtering and calculated the number of times a word was used. Wordle’s default creation function is normally adequate, however it did not preserve the word ‘if’.
