Twit Poet Days Gone

Twit Poet Days Gone

Taking time to act like Dad
With little haiku left to add
I thought I'd try my hand at rhyme
To fill a certain unused time

Perhaps acrostic eye enjoys
Opinionated writer noise
Escaping from these fingered keys
Talent  turns a term to please

Displayed on Hello Poetry
Among such well wove tapestry
Yearning to seem well rehearsed
Strangely outside insight versed

Granted this is not those works
Once the reader unlike jerks
Notices the time it took
Expressing thoughts found in no book

Acrostic poetry is a lot of fun to write, maybe no so much to read. Ah well, this is the nature of the beast.
This is also a type of meta-poetry akin to the rensaku among my writes. A work is considered Meta when mention is made of the work itself, the writer, the venue, the media of presentation, or the mechanics of writing. Twit Poet Days Gone involves at least three of these defining functions of meta. That this was composed entirely on a laptop keyboard, while online, with no pen or paper involved is, in my opinion, another facet of meta which should be explored and typified.
