Dinkle Dorkle And Other Nut Cases

By Allen Taylor

In 2009, Allen Taylor - owner and webmaster at World Class Poetry - started a project using a hashtag he invented for that purpose - #twitpoem. For several months he published one #twitpoem per day. Dinkle Dorkle And Other Nut Cases represents one month of the #twitpoem project.

There are 30 poems of 140 characters or less. Each poem shows the poet as a whimsical, wacky wordsmith who takes risks and plays with language in odd, sometimes disturbing, ways. These poems are all creative uses of language including distortions of punctuation and the poetic line.

Allen Taylor

Allen Taylor is a published poet and fiction writer, former newspaper editor and award-winning journalist, and a professional content writer for businesses. He is a small group leader at his church, has lead worship, and has, on a few occasions, delivered a sermon. He’s also smoked a few cigars. A late bloomer, he is beyond the age of fifty, married to a beautiful woman with three adult children (two of whom call him “Dad”), and is a proud Poppy to four incredible grandchildren with whom he loves to play. He is also the founder at Crux Publications, as cliché as it is (it’s also true), the chief bottle washer.
