The poem in digital spaces 

I first discovered this poem not through a book or a lecture, but while scrolling on Twitter in that unidentifiable period between 2020 and 2022. This poem is one among many pieces of literature that found their way towards me, and towards you, through a digital mean. 

In this page I wanted to collect what I find the most interesting, beautiful, relevant and relatable posts that I found on different digital platforms, such as Tumblr, Instagram, X (Twitter) and Pinterest. What I wanted to point out is how this poem is shared on these digital platforms, and how it sparks conversations and discussions. 

These are other interesting online versions of the poem that I think are relevant:

• This comic, posted on Instagram in 2019, is the one that started spreading the poem on the internet and made it gain popularity. 

• This post on Tumblr and its screenshot on Pinterest and their comments provide a possibility into seeing what other people think of this poem, how it relates to them and it is a clear example of a literary discussion sparked on digital platforms. 

• This other comic rendition of the poem shared on X (Twitter); however, I do not like this because the calf is depicted as still alive while he is being brought to the museum, which makes me sad, but it is also relevant because it puts in stark contrast the cruelty of humans and the beauty that the calf is able to see. 

• This is a X (Twitter) post to a website rendition of the poem, which through the use of background sounds and interaction lets the user experience what the two-headed calf sees.
