Haiku poets of Bluesky:

I don't understand what is going on when poets post an unsolicited poem in response to a prompt poem.

Is it a "you inspired me"? Is it "this is my own response to the prompt?" If to a prompt, why not post separately with the tag? What's the etiquette here?

Help?

I probably saw pine siskins among my backyard birds years before I realized they were not juvenile finches because their wings are so subtly yellow.

I woke up thinking about lead in my protein powder and cinnamon, the deadly colonialism of spices, the relative wealth of my pantry, and Winter Spice Season. Like you do.
