Pre-face = pre-facebook?

Dear Brother, Parental Unit, Evila Elf, JES, and perhaps JP and Shrie?  I have not abandoned my online journal.  Prose is alas, still alive. I use it in my ink-on-paper journal almost daily.  And in the occasional solo-audience email.

"Prose generally lacks the formal structure of meter or rhyme which is typical of poetry; instead it is composed of full sentences, usually divided into paragraphs, and then smaller segments known as meta-paragraphs."

I know Wikipedia is controversial but I'm a lazy Googler.  Prose generally probably lacks the potential half sentence/thoughts of a facebook status or twitter tweet as well.  That is a sentence I would not have written a mere 6-ish months ago.

No offense to poetry, of course!

facebook, prose, twitter
