When clarity comes
Against stalling sequences—
Intelligence exists within;
Truth reveals itself and tracks.

Wisdom weather vanes
Illustrate the answer—
Love is a level.
Twirling in the wind—
Emotions will not wait—
Death is icy isolation.

I definitely loveeeee your picture choice Mr. Tristan. It represents you. The spiraling, etc it’s 👌🏼🥂. Appreciate your words. Your work here is splendid and inspiring work well done. 👏🏻✨
Why (pun intended 🤣), Ms. Kiki! I am glad both the picture and the words delivered! Trust me when I say this, you are equally as inspiring. The feeling is mutual! 🌀✨🙏🖤
🥂🥂🥂
“The Shape of Why”~ the title itself is mysterious, does it not make you think of letter “y” in itself ?
Thank you! When the title hit, I had to go with it. Yes...it sure does make me think of the letter "Y" itself, which is why I loved the title so much! It points to both the question and the letter...which in and of itself can ask the question! Beautiful stuff. So very stoked you caught that my insightful friend! 🌀✨🙏🖤
Ahhhh thank you poet 👌🏼🥂🤴
Deeply philosophical this write starts right off with a puzzle and ends with a powerful statement that love won't wait. Emotions come and go unlike logic that only slowly erodes with additions to the puzzle with time.
Soren, this means a lot…you saw the puzzle, the erosion, and the urgency of love refusing to wait. That’s exactly where mind meets marrow in this piece. Thank you, my friend. 🌀✨🙏🖤
You scare me Tristan I have never had a lucky streak like that before. You are most welcome my friend
Now don't answer this, nor finish the sentence - Why did Popeye........?! lol.
I'll match that and double down...What is the shape of Popeye's...erm...why? LOL!
There's cryptic and there's cryptic and there's Tristan Robert Lange🙃😊Almost inclined to go with Popeye, but don't know what that's about either. I try not to go 'where angels fear to tread', but I've still got some vision and still am anxious not to miss your gallery and poetic structures.....
Dave, this made me laugh…you see the cryptic and dive in anyway...rock on, my friend. As for Popeye...🤣 pure silliness, I am sure! Thanks for staying on the journey, my friend. 🌀✨🙏🖤
Take care - 'see you next round, or the one after.
Like a cryptic crossword, in the middle there. Excellent device 🙏🏻🕊️
Indeed! Thank you! Wanted to do something a bit new with the acrostic and it did come out very crossword-like. Thank you my friend! 🌀✨🙏🖤
Superb. Extremely creative.
Thank you so much, my dear friend! Glad it delvered! 🌀✨🙏🖤
