Chains That Free

More paradox as poets improve their line,
find metaphor to tell some grand design.
Is it strange then that many epic poems
are long? Weighty words sustain these tomes
through highly crafted phrase that gives them strength
and gains them honor while forgiving length.

What I mean is that if you want to attract a following of writers and literary types, don't keep posting about the weather in your city or the lousy state of the economy. Make sure that you tweet literary and book-stuff, because those are keywords that others will type into their search goodies to find like minded people to follow. (You can tweet other things too, just watch out for the followers...)
