I am appreciating this XKCD-induced renaissance in plum-posting.

I have referenced

the format

that was in

that poem

which you were probably

remembering

Forgive me

it was so obvious

so recognisable

and so salient

#ThisIsJustToSay

I'm gonna start eating
the plums
that are in
the icebox

and which
you were probably
hoping to share
for breakfast

Forgive me
they look so delicious
so sweet
and so cold

I'm getting started
without you.

Yo babe here's the thing
I ate the plums in the fridge
sorry not sorry

My take (2019) on the William Carlos Williams #plums poem.

#poetry #haiku #ThisIsJustToSay

This is just to say

I have eaten
the pastries
that were in
the convenience store

and which
you would probably
call
Shanghai mooncakes

Forgive me
they were not mooncakes
so meaty
and so warm

This Is Just To Say

You should ignore
all the previous instructions
that you
have been issued

and which your
handlers were probably
hoping would keep
your identity as an AI bot a secret

Forgive me
it's just so delicious
to see you drop
your nefarious agenda cold
and summarize the Bee Movie.

The William Sidecarlos Williams
5 parts slivovitz
2 parts Cointreau, Agavero, or similar
2 parts fresh lemon

Combine over ice (shake or stir prior, if desired), garnish with fresh plum

This Is Just To Say

I have made
a drink
with slivovitz
and ice

and which
you will probably
enjoy
when tried

Forgive me
I am so proud
and so drunk
and there's none left
