I love receiving text messages that share an interesting thought, or a new muse, or a beautiful line, or ask lovingly how a day has been.
But people dont do these things very often anymore, do they? They prefer to message to remind, to make future arrangements, or to condense another source of information.
Felix Cheong taught me to write SMS poetry. He showed me how the constraints of a text message could be turned into the discipline of craft, how words from a text message didn't always have to be so neglectably transparent.
But he didn't tell me who I could send them to.
