Twitter poetry 2021: Week 41

My blogger-poet-friend Ingrid inspired me to create a Twitter account and start writing #APoemADay, which I began on January 1, 2021.

This week, I posted a series of kimos to Twitter, which I wrote a while ago… Actually, I’m thrilled to say that I’ve completed my full year’s worth of micropoems for 2021, meaning that I no longer have to compose poems for this particular project. From here on out, I’ll only be posting these weekly compilations of micropoems on Fridays! Huzzah!

I hope you enjoy these kimos!

Shabbat Shalom from Jerusalem,
David

A #kimo:

Some successful authors are poor writers.
Judgmentalism comes easy,
as does my #jealousy.

A #kimo:

anxiety's incapacitating;
encapsulating the heart;
capping capacity

A #kimo:

youth grants us untold endless energies;
middle age shortens our breath,
but patience gets 'er done.

A #kimo:

There's an #Israeli poetic form.
It looks like #haiku's love child
with a lovely #landay.

A #kimo:

generations of #humans, one after
the next until they're not; words
~ our attempt at dressing

A #kimo:

vacation but solitude's poetry
~ simultaneously in
need of love yet restored

All are lovely. But the first one really catches my fancy. Yes, jealous is the right word. 🙂
