Okay, BUT why EXACTLY is Instapoetry so bad??

I brave the rain and my own bad decisions to talk exactly why Instapoetry is so bad but so popular. Got a bloomin' cold for this.

Check out Culture Broker, a serial fiction novel I’m writing:

This is a story about a young woman who gets into all the wrong crowds.
And a story about a young man who is all the wrong crowds.
For everyone's sake, they should not fall in love.

About me:
I am a 20-somethin’ y.o intellectual crackhead, who like books, poetry, and anything else I like to get into (art, films, philosophy, culture, social commentary etc.). Talking books, I like classics, literary fiction, and sci-fi, but will read anything if it’s bad-funny enough.
