Twitter Poetry Readings

Sounds good, but I'm not sure I could commit to it every week. I like the idea though and possibly Twitter poetry readings? Do you find this valuable?

I don't think anyone needs to commit to weekly attendance. There should be plenty of people who rotate in and out of chatting, and I think part of the joy of it is that chatting won't fall apart if regulars can't come (unlike, say, a critique group).

As for Twitter poetry readings... interesting! Where would you read the Twitter verse? Or is it more a set time on Twitter for everyone to post poetry? Or...???

Please allow me to offer the following proem--not a prose proem, but an introduction or a provocative assertion intended to incite discussion: Much of poetry today --for both children's and adults--is not splendid but Slenda-ed."
