Brevity

Two Brief Poems on The Subject Of Keeping Things Brief

By Mike Singleton 💜 Mikeydred Published 3 years ago 1 min read

The Idea

I was wondering how little I could get away with writing in a poem. Taking the concept of brevity as far as I can. I did posit the concept of a one-word poem in my poem “Impossible” (check it out at the end of this story), but I will do a FIB (Fibonacci poem) followed by a Haiku.). I am expecting no reads for this, not because people don’t read it, but because the poems are so short and people will not stay here long.

I included "Narcissus" by the Bonzo Dog Band because at 22 seconds it is the essence of brevity.
