A Poem, But Bottled

To prove how pointless 'Twitterspeak' is, and because I was challenged over whether I could even do it, I wrote what's apparently a 'Twitter poem'.  Or  a poem except in 140 characters or less.

Title: Skinned drums

Wheres rhythm in words/Wen taped 2 a board/Cut short/Nu tlk/It br gr8/Lik brv nu wrld/Getin smaller/Smlr/Smr/Till thrz nomeanin lft/N wrdz r jst smblz

Or, in normal people form
Wheres rhythm in words
Wen taped 2 a board
Cut short
Nu tlk
It br gr8
Lik brv nu wrld
Getin smaller
Smlr
Smr
Till thrz nomeanin lft
N wrdz r jst smblz

  1. Pretty impressive! I probably wouldn't have ever been able to do it. It took me a while to understand some of the words but reading them out loud made me realize how weird Twitter sounds. Nevertheless congratulations for succeeding in this challenge.
