The Overturning

Tristan Robert Lange


Notice of absence from Tristan Robert Lange
Friends, I’m doing my best to keep up with comments. 😅 I’m still current on my own poems and first replies on others’ work, but this season has been a bit of a twister. Figured I’d drop a quick note so you don’t think I’ve vanished or gone flaky.
Read. Write. Rise. Realize. 🤘💀🖤
people love a sale.
it hides what is truly wrong.
this house ain’t for sale.

    Love it - you are pandering to my short humerous side

    People love a sale
    they think their buys are bargains
    but sails are for boats

      Clever!! Love it!! Sale on!!

    • sorenbarrett

      That made me think Tristan and that is a good thing. I could hear the gears grinding as the rust fell off. A definite fave. My house is not for sale either unless someone wants to pay more than I think anyone would for it. (everything has a price)
