Now, that is fun. Good job.

    To all my homies
    commenting in hacker news
    I just brought a little rhyme
    that it helped me do
    Cause when I bust all around
    even PG looks
    and every hacker here says
    Go orange go.

    And as I type this
    I dont know what else to do
   so give me a mic
   and Ill show you how its done
   Its not about being the best
   or simply two plus two
   but being a *killa*
   when it comes
   to committing code.

   So check out my github
   and star a  thing or two
   plus fork my repos
   but hey, no pycon stuff
   And as I finish up rhymes
   and downvotes creep
   I say hola to my peeps
   and go back to work.
Peace.

Freestyle is the best part. You can generate an entire (gibberish) rap song from one line:

What light through yonder window breaks?

To be great, i'm giving it all it takes

Lookin' at me, now they know my face

Driving my car to a foreign place

This is no trial, this a closed case

I ain't looking in her eyes but her face

Prps cover my eight’s, uhh, lemme switch my pace

Pluck ya ace, take ya girl, fuck her face

Earlier quoted context omitted.

What are you using for syllable counting?

A simple regex! That's why it's not perfect :(

check out the cmu pronouncing dictionary [http://www.speech.cs.cmu.edu/cgi-bin/cmudict] - it does both syllables and stresses.
