real talk why didn’t short form text social spur a poetry renaissance? feels like a content medium that could’ve flourished as a result of the rise of bite sized content feeds 🤔

there was a popular alt-lit poetry movement on tumblr/twitter in the early 2010s but like most things on the internet, it got cycled through quickly and most alt-lit poetry was indistinguishable from regular shitposting. shitposting has become a default online mode which kind of means everyone is writing poetry now

that’s a fun way to think about it generally agree, but maybe i tend to think of poems as more earnest then shitposts - not that a shitpost can’t be earnest, just that satire + absurdism is its own thing in the context of experiences
