This Week’s Top Ten Poetic Picks

8 Comments 23 August 2012

The best in poetry (and poetic things), this week with Lyla Lindquist. 1 Art As an insurance adjuster, I find the term “perfect storm” an unfortunate combination of words, unless we simply mean the sort of storm which generates a lot of business for me but in which no one is hurt and only easily [...]

Marcus Goodyear and Barbies at Communion

15 Comments 14 July 2010

You see your young daughter playing with her Barbie dolls in church while communion is being served, and the result is a poem. You read an article about a super-collider, and a poem results (for Mother’s Day, no less). You’re cutting your lawn that’s browning in the Texas heat, and a poem results. Welcome to [...]

So, yes, it was a Barbie-themed party, and it was wild. For the last three poetry jams, we’ve been featuring a new “tool” or Twitter [...]

Sponsor Poetry (& Happiness)

Every day at Tweetspeak we work hard to bring happiness and personal growth to our audience. Sure, it costs. We could talk about that in terms of what it takes to make a house downpayment, for instance (and not in South Dakota either, you betcha).

Or we could just say this: we do it happily. If you want to be part of that happiness in a small way, you could "Subscribe" for a year. Well, and that would make us happy too. Yep.

We aren't offering anything gimmicky in return. Just a chance to make us smile and keep us mortgage-free. And either way, Tweetspeak will be here for you every day.

We'd love to tweet or Facebook our thanks to you if you sponsor. (And that's no gimmick.) Just tell us not to if you prefer to stay secret.
