1. The purpose of the poem was to display in short the dark, twisted, and violent fantasies that rivet the madness that is the inner thoughts of a serial killer. The book being about an innocent eighteen year old being showered in this madness, I wanted to portray a darker, sinister feel through the poem.
2. I accomplished this with a black background representing the darkness on the inner mechanics of the mind of a serial killer, and darker, warmer colours for the words commonly associated with the mayhem that follows these men such as pain, suffering, target, victim, and killer. The larger words are those of the names of these men who have been written in history for their brutal body counts associated with them. Such as Dahmer, Gacy, Ramierez, and Manson.
3. I think that wordle is a useful tool for those who use poetry a lot in their English work, for it is an easy way to represent key points and concepts and associate feeling through it due to its poetic structure. I enjoyed using this because it was very easy and straight forward. But I feel outside of English class, there wouldn't be much variety in terms of how to use it in different situations. It could possibly be used to create a cover for a book, album or some media related piece of work.
