TopTweetTuesday

Next week on TopTweetTusday we’re looking for newness. Aim for: - the expression of new or highly unfamiliar feelings and sentiments. Tough! - using at least three hardly ever used words. - inventing at least three new words. - max 80 words, imagistic, metaphorical.

@TopTweetTuesday Thanks to @MatthewMCSmith and @blackboughpoems for the prompt. Sorry for the hashtag malfunction yesterday and thanks again for letting me have the chance of posting. Thanks to @helen_laycock for the earlier heads up! #oulipopoem #constrainedpoetry #oulipo

Any missed @TopTweetTuesday poems?

Ok. A quick bit of fun. Not my own language but still completely unintelligible. @TopTweetTuesday

Dreaming up my nonsense poem on the train too and from the exhibition of Cornish Myths and Legends at Cornwall Museum and Art Gallery. @MatthewMCSmith @TopTweetTuesday

Thought I was losing the plot with this one! Or maybe just a translator!😄😳 @TopTweetTuesday @MatthewMCSmith @blackboughpoems

lowering tide. our shoreless speech salt on the tongue, hushcargo i don’t release your almost still there, foamwarm morning comes and takes the water not this, this unsaid i keep in the mouth #TopTweetTuesday #uropoet #love Thanks to @MatthewMCSmith. I tried a little experimentation 📷from X

Here’s my 89-word experimental poem, Cloud Toccata, with invented storm language that also plays with sound and form, for today’s @TopTweetTuesday Thank you for hosting @MatthewMCSmith @blackboughpoems . What an awesome challenge! (Art by me 🎨🖌️)

Honored to have work in this beautiful anthology. Diolch to Matt and Kitty for birthing this extraordinary project. Proud of all my colleagues!

Nice challenge, @MatthewMCSmith! I was wondering how much remnant of a familiar language it takes to get what's going on in Inventish. @TopTweetTuesday

@blackboughpoems #TopTweetTuesday specials thanks @MatthewMCSmith &to everyone reading, participating, commenting! For my sanity, I thought the easiest thing would be a straight English version and it exact new language version. it was fun trying to read the new version aloud!

Hi @MatthewMCSmith👋 Here's my poem for this week's @TopTweetTuesday #poetry

For this weeks challenge I’ve gone mad. @TopTweetTuesday Experiments in Language for @MatthewMCSmith Look forward to seeing what others have conjured later.

Hi All, the expectation this week @TopTweetTuesday is to create your own, new poetic language to write a poem in. Thanks, as always, to @MatthewMCSmith @blackboughpoems for this challenge - hope I’ve met the brief (short explanatory footnote provided)!

Hello, Poets. Here’s my smattering of manangled words. I look forward to being inspired by your inventiveness. This assignment is a growing edge for me, but I must say I enjoyed misspelling things. Magnanithanx to @MatthewMCSmith @blackboughpoems @TopTweetTuesday

I've gone all in on my own language for this week's challenge @MatthewMCSmith. Thanks again for the prompt. @blackboughpoems @TopTweetTuesday #poetry

@TopTweetTuesday @MatthewMCSmith @blackboughpoems Poetically, this week’s prompt takes me about as far afield as I get - best stay closer to the tractor. But just the same, thanks for hosting. 🚜😌 #writingprompt #poetic #poetrycommunity

Apologies for misconstruing the @TopTweetTuesday brief and interpreting new language as metaphorical for going a bit imagistically weird @MatthewMCSmith @blackboughpoems

@MatthewMCSmith @TopTweetTuesday This futuristic language has real structure when you look at the translation. So clever! And such a beautiful poem hidden within it. ❤️ 🌸🌺🌸🌺🌸
