Twitter Poems

I’ve noticed a lot of people on my friends’ list using Twitter, and I’ve got an interesting idea about using it as a poetry tool.

I’ve set up an account and using LoudTwitter, I think I’ll use it on a semi-regular basis to capture lines and stuff during the day, then use the resulting daily crosspost of the collected Twitters to this blog (11:00 AM EDT) to be the source of a new poem. I may not use it every day, but it’s worth experimenting with…finding a way to ensure that I force myself to use all those odd things that occur to me during the day.

If anyone else wants to try it, that would be cool. Maybe we could set up an LJ community for it eventually…
