Notice of absence from Tristan Robert Lange
I am lagging slightly in my responses to comments on my poems due to a crazy schedule. I will be catching up on them soon. I have read them all and will find the time to respond, but did not want you to think I was ghosting. In the meantime, and always:
Read, Write, Rise, Realize.

There is something true that does so track—
Ask Orchi, he knows this goes way back—
One can hem, haw, throw a shrug,
But that will not stop the glug.
Now the plumbing is about to crack.

- Comment from author about the poem: A MyPoeticSide exclusive. A one-off transmission from the WCAT archives during a brief moment of “quiet time.” Shared for the amusement of a friend and the unfolding of what can only be described as glug-related inevitability. What’s this about? Tune into WCAT to never learn.

The Orchi story of a marriage imbibed when with too little water prescribed he was induced to marry as he described a life with ball and chain circumscribed. A fun read my friend
Haha, my friend… this feels like one of those moments where the joke just keeps evolving on its own. I’ve seen how these threads spiral, and you adding to it like this just makes it better. Really appreciate you playing along, Soren. 🧱🔥🫀🙏
Always a pleasure Tristan
Well done,my friend.Your poem serves as a reminder that neglecting problems—symbolized by the plumbing—will lead to greater consequences, urging readers to face their realities head-on.
LOL! Thank you, Friendship… I appreciate you taking it there. Yeah, that sense of things building under the surface until they can’t be ignored anymore… this crew definitely learned the hard way! 😂 Much appreciated, my friend. 🧱🔥🫀🙏
We know now - WCAT is Where Chaos and Threads Collide - isn't it?! There he is glugging! lol.
Does it? Wait...WCAT!
I mean, it's its own mythology at this point! 🤣
Never really came to terms with all that glugging - don't know quite why; I think I'm in enough trouble following the good orchi's train of thought when responses from me are required.. Any explanation would be gratefully received from either of you....
Dave, haha. Trying to follow Orchi’s train of thought is a full-time job in itself. As for the glugging…it started as an absurd running joke between us that just kept evolving (somewhere along the way Popeye and crew showed up…don’t ask 😄), and now it just sort of…happens. Best not to resist it too much…it’s damn persistent. 🤣 Grateful you’re jumping in with us, my friend. 🔥🖤🙏✨
I am not ! My query was of a 'what's going on?' nature, and did not, I repeat not imply active participation.😂
Stay safe, you two.
🤣 Fair enough, Dave. I don't blame you 🤣
Yes, I'm Sir Orchi NS (non sequitur), Dave says! It means I talk nonsense, go off at tangents, etc, and then folk say 'No change there then'. lol. And WCAT of many things. lol.
Sometimes, occasionally, just for a moment orchi, you make some kind of sense....
When? Once very 25 years?! lol.
My impression is it was 27 years, but still, I'm not going to argue - what's a couple of years here or there...
Orchi, that non sequence word seems more foreign than those pentameter thingies you sometimes muse about. I'm impressed! 🤣 And to think it all came through without a single...
What was I going to say? Tune into to WCAT!
Fantastic.
Thank you, Thomas! Much appreciated, my friend!
as crazy as it may seem, this makes perfect sense to those in the know .. bravo .. 🖤🐦⬛🐈⬛🖤🐦⬛🐈⬛🖤🐦⬛🐈⬛🖤🐧🌻👍
Thank you, Neville… haha, I’m glad it landed for you like that. It really does have its own kind of logic once you’re in it… appreciate you, my friend. 🧱🔥🫀🙏
Such a fun read, dear friend 🕊️🙏🤩
arqios, I really appreciate that… this one definitely has a playful chaos to it, so I’m glad you felt that and had fun with it. Thanks for reading, my friend. 🧱🔥🫀🙏
Playful chaos, now that is a feat like beetle juice meeting Dr Seuss🤩💪🏻
Playful rhyme and metaphor to describe the inevitability of cause and effect with super comic timing.
Vimal, thank you, my friend… I really appreciate that. Yeah, there’s definitely that sense of things unfolding whether we like it or not… I’m glad the humor carried it through for you. 🧱🔥🫀🙏
