Recently, our beloved LC questioned the usefulness of the social media site we’ve all grown to love: Twitter. Some agreed with her that the site is just a gathering place for self-important half-wits and Diddy. Now, though, one man has ended the argument over Twitter’s ability to incite brilliance and inspiration. One man has taken Twitter to its intellectual boundaries, and pushed through to a new level of awareness that would make even the great W.E.B. Dubois tremble to his core.

That man is none other than O.J. Da Juiceman.

After only a mere 151 updates and counting, Mr. Vitamin C has packed a novel’s worth of profundity in each 140 character or less installment. Let’s examine.

Like a young Nasir Jones or Mark Twain, O.J. made his presence known to the world in a storm of literary dexterity.

Like an old Negro spiritual, Juiceman uses the age-old call and response to end his tweets. A maelstrom of energetic “aye’” “well damn’s” and “burr’s” tap into our roots, melding our ancestry with the ways of Twitter.

And like a young Ezra Pound, O.J. opts to sometimes use brevity as a means of self-expression:

Wonder why something is always “technically wrong” with Twitter? Juiceman has just unleashed a fury or lyrical depth too mighty for a web engine run by mere mortals:

I must give praises to the high Gods for allowing such a visionary to grace the pages of Twitter and tip-toe on the edges of our souls where possibilities are boundless.

I will have Sir Juiceman’s Twitter page bookmarked so I can appreciate the spectacular thoughts of a man whose poetry knows no limits.

Aye!
