\'our strips of stuff that tatter as we move\'
jarcher54 said:

I had to catch my breath after this one. I picture the three Fates, one spinning, one weaving, and one snagging a loose thread to begin unravelling us, all jumbled into one intense tour de force. Painful and somewhat beautiful!

Doggerel Dave said:

Although not au fait with all your allusions Jon, I have the feeling this is a neat funny little piece.

PS: Who is this Ephesians4:26 guy anyway? Is he a poet here? I’d go and sort him out or do the red ‘report’ button……………….😉

Death and the Kings
Doggerel Dave said:

Awake too late, though - a well told tale, Jon.
The irony there - what was once; what is now: King 2 wanted King 1\'s son to marry his daughter..... and now?

cut and paste poem #16: bertrand russell and snagglepuss
Doggerel Dave said:

With snagglepuss in the mix I find it funny and, yes, a little surreal.
Thanks Jon.

100 books you must not read before you die #35

100 books you must not read before you die #35
Doggerel Dave said:

I do not as a general rule take statements of which I have no prior knowledge on face value, but attempt to investigate (in this case, named George Berkeley). This I endeavored to do. Search lasted approx 10 minutes, after which I was forced to lie down with a cold compress over my eyes. Headache eventually reduced to tolerable level.
Thanks for the recommendation - I should\'a taken more notice.

Although the experimental form did not make for clear understanding by this literal pedestrian mind, it didn\'t appear sad to me.....

Randomly interesting... your sketchbook is intriguing, your phrases are curious enough to be unsettling in a wonderful way. Very evocative. Glad I dropped in on it.
