Twitter Poems from The New York Times

Twitter Poem

The poem creates a space.
It hides in a tent in a forest.
Making its own bed it falls asleep in the dark,
wakes up under a lamp or the sun.

Billy Collins, whose new book of poems is “Horoscopes for the Dead.”

Earth donates

break in a wave train
fallout active plume cloud spills
red reactors give
cross characters translated

Low Pay Piecework

The fifth-grade teacher and her followers—
Five classes, twenty-eight in each, all hers:
One-hundred-and-forty different characters.

Robert Pinsky, whose “Selected Poems” will be published next month.

Up in the Air!

National Geographic Channel and a team of scientists, engineers, and two world-

class balloon pilots creating a real-life version of Pixar's animated hit film Up.

On March 5th at dawn they successfully launched a 16' X 16' house 18' tall with 

300 8' colored weather balloons from a private airfield east of Los Angeles, and 

set a new world record for the largest balloon cluster flight ever attempted. The 

entire experimental aircraft was more than 10 stories high, reached an altitude 

of over 10,000 feet, and flew for approximately one hour.

Marilyn Monroe by Richard Avedon

The thin line between actor and character, between the private self and 

the public role. "There was no such person as Marilyn Monroe, Marilyn 

Monroe was someone Marilyn Monroe invented, like an author creates a 

character. For hours she danced and sang and flirted and did this thing 

that's she did Marilyn Monroe. And then there was the inevitable drop. 

And when the night was over and the white wine was over and the dancing 

was over, she sat in the corner like a child, with everything gone. I saw her 

sitting quietly without expression on her face, and I walked towards her 

but I wouldn't photograph her without her knowledge of it. And as I came 

with the camera, I saw that she was not saying no."

From an interview with the filmmaker Helen Whitney.

Picture: Marilyn Monroe by Richard Avedon, May 6 1957, New York City.

The Sartorialist

"If you can ask any other person who does a creative thing,
they probably go to school and learn all these different
things and as they get better it narrows and narrows."
