New site to look at.

Discovered the 'Four & Twenty' site today. Nothing to do with the famous Australian 'Four & Twenty Pies'. It's a site that asks for submissions of poems of four lines or less and only twenty words. If you like Haiku you'll probably like this. I did five of these little poems for an exercise(have to refine them of course) and found it an interesting thing to do to get the mind working. Sometimes working on a very short piece can make you focus quite sharply. You have to get down to the real meaning of each word and it can be a challenge. Have a go and see what you come up with.
Just Google Four and Twenty short form poetry and the site will be found.
