Seven Lines to Burn

Tristan Robert Lange


Notice of absence from Tristan Robert Lange
Every once and a while, or more often than one wants to admit, they need a bit of a mental vacay. Right now is that time for me. See you soon! 🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛
Seven Lines to Burn
 
Purposeful in speaking
Revelation to a world
Overcome by its own self-worship—
Paralysis by degrees of narcissism.
Harrowing as it may seem,
Energy comes through righteous anger.
The damned deny their own self-destruction.

Tittu

  • Comment from author about the poem: This poem opens The Book of Tittu—a cycle of eight visions carried in a single voice. Each stands on its own, yet all are bound together. The name “Tittu” was given to me by my dear friend Salvia S. of MyPoeticSide who has truly seen me for who I am. She formed it from the first two T’s in Tristan, one from Robert, and “U” for “you,” not knowing it already meant “honorable,” “artistically creative,” and, in her culture, “beloved.” That name and its meaning have since become part of me, and I am eternally grateful for such a profoundly personal and humbling gift.
