Minimalism - thoughts on some poemssteemCreated with Sketch.

in #tags10 years ago

I was browsing through the #poem tag the day before yesterday and a stumbled across a couple of poems from a new account, @hammeravgud

Apart from really liking the poems, I realised that it was also refreshing to just have to poem to read. No performance, just the poem, poems not frightened to stand alone on the screen.

I remembered another prose-poem that I'd read the day before, by @kellywin21

Again, just the writing, uncompromising: "read me if you want you".

And so I wondered if, what with the New Tag Meme buzzing around, there was room for a new poetry tag. Any comments? #justapoem or #nakedpoem ... Have a look at the poems I've linked above, and see what you think.
