The Recipe

Tristan Robert Lange


Notice of absence from Tristan Robert Lange
Life is full of seasons. This is a season of transition for me, where I will be moving with my family to a new location. As such, with much logistics to consider, I am doing my best to keep up. Please know if I accidentally don't respond, it is not because I am ghosting or becoming distant. Once things settle after the move, I am sure life will return to some normalcy. In the meantime, and always:

Read 👓, Write ✍️, Rise 🌅, Realize 🤯.

Tristan 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛
Cancel culture casserole.
Oven preheated to six-fifty.
Let lies leaven the realities.
Bake time slow; the rise fast.
Easy, palatable, pretentious suppression.
Rest assured there will be no seconds.
This is the recipe for oppression.

    This was hard for me today. I am going to try! Your poem "Cancel culture casserole" explores cancel culture as a form of social oppression. The poet uses the metaphor of cooking to illustrate how misinformation and suppression of dissenting opinions create a toxic societal environment.

    Clever in metaphor and wording it is a satirical recipe for a food that I am allergic to and can't stomach. It makes me ill (not the poem the recipe) A fave my friend
