There was one addicted to verse
Who did something a little perverse
He took all of his poems
And gave them new homes
In the cold Instagram universe

Please don't think he's abandoning you
He's just curious to try something new
His poems do wear pants
Infested with ants
But to GR he'll be naked and true

message 1: by Jeroen (new)

Jeroen Vandenbossche I am not going there my friend,
But I wish you all the best,
No, this is not the end,
Just another quest,
You will have to undertake alone,
Be brave out there in the unknown!

Thanks for the kind words my friend
You are wise to remain on this end
Instagram's bleak
I've been there for a week
And I'm already sort of losing my mind!

I agree :-)


message 5: by Irena (new)

Irena Pasvinter A wonderful idea! Followed. I love how you arranged your re_verse. Maybe I should do the same with some of the poems I published here and there in online magazines nobody ever reads except authors themselves.;)

You should, Irena! It's been fun using Canva to create posts where I get to choose the font and everything myself. I even got my wife to illustrate each and every poem. Not many people are reading them but that's fine. Besides I don't write self-help disguised as poetry, which seems to be what 98% of instapoetry is :-))

Irena Pasvinter I loved the way your poems are illustrated.

Ulysse I’ve just told her what you said, Irena, she’s very pleased 😊


message 9: by Vesna (new)

Vesna That's a great project, Ulysse! And your wife's illustrations give it a special charm. I go to Instagram only to check on the photo updates of a three-legged cat in our neighborhood and occasionally Patti Smith. Now I'll hop in there for your posts too, but please do stay on GR!

Oh I have no intention of leaving GR, Vesna, even if it means being in the company of Patti Smith and a three-legged cat. I like it too much here among my favourite readers and writers :-)
