In Estonia, offering unsolicitive advice is—wait, I'm doing it right now, aren't I? The very thing I'm warning about. This is the problem with meta-commentary; it eats its own tail like some writerly ouroboros, except less mythic and more just... awkward.

Darn these un-darned socks!
My sewing skills are so-sew;
toes nail me for this.

Cheers, John.

The #writing path less traveled is often the path less copied. Many #poets and #writers drink from the same punch bowl, and many are using the same crystal. The punch reminds me of my grandmother's recipe—which was simply gin and ice cubes.

Cheers, Paul.

I choose to take quieter side paths; they keep me from arriving where the other #writers naturally gather, and I may owe some of them money, unless one of them is Lionel, in which case he can repay me the 7 shillings from that time he left with the bottle, and I left with the tab.

I bet all of these words would be great when spoken. #poemsabout #dogtags @thebrokenspine.co.uk
