Verification wastes my time, and often doesn't work. I am going to stop commenting on pages that require verification one of these days.

Great stuff! And the Sound cloud led to more, unexpected delights. 🙂
I like that you use the word “tweet” in the title. The third verse makes the poem for me. Very nice!
clearly seasoned at this. 🙂 enjoyed.
it is interesting how you can find news on there faster than anywhere else…
johnny on the spot with a tweet…
Ha! Cute poem and pic 🙂
Ha..as I am not an American I have just realised that all the poetry I read has a British accent for me…thus the different American accents always come as a shock.I wonder if the accent can actually change the meaning of a poem? Enjoyed your reading.
That was fun!
Loved the pace of your reading.
ha – it’s such a fast, fast flowing stream, before you turn around, the news is history..
You have captured the charm of twitter excellently 😉
I think twitter does lead to blogging. It certainly did for me.
…write history before it hits the news — ah, how easily we can do that now anywhere, anytime…. loved this… Smiles…
Oh shoot…lost my long comment when I hit the sound cloud. lol. Twitter used to be primarily mundane but love its growth as fastest news and ability to relay for help. Nice tweet!
You speak Tweet with a perfect accent–nice job.
Compactly perfect – even the ampersands, contractions and texting-abbreviations contribute to the feel of the poem.
This is so playful – love it!
