Poetry on Twitter

I'm not on Twitter but lots of people are. Today the Independent picked up on a growing trend to use Twitter for 140 character poems.

The poems reproduced in the article are striking (for me, Sophie Robinson's the best). They are said to tend to be playful, collaborative, ephemeral, philosophical and /or musing

In the final paragraph, readers are told that a precisely 140 character poem is a 'twoosh'. Anyone fancy having a go?
