The article deals with the relationship between semantics and poetic meter in the works of Czech post-symbolist poets and their predecessors. We access the phenomena by means of a machine-driven meter recognition on one hand and LDA topic modelling on the other. We first show how the poetic groups differ in their gen-eral preferences for particular topics. Next we analyze the topic distributions in two dominant metres (i.e. iamb and trochee) across the poetic groups.
