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 š, Write āļø, Rise š , Realize š¤Æ.

looking back at the rabble—
dispersing from the smoke,
looking confused as they babble,
hack, spit, cough, and choke.
listen, moses, this ain’t no fable,
this is a fire we must stoke,
for far past the time of babel,
these bricks’ll leave pharoah broke.

Save on expense I say no straw for the bricks. What you say they crumble, don't mumble, you say they were made by hicks. Excuse the rambling Tristan couldn't help myself. The poem has deeper meaning I think. My mind takes me in different directions one rebuilding what we destroy in war is good for the economy of nations and private companies but expenses in the national economy leaves a deficit. Two if applied personally this also applies. Well written my friend and for its cleverness a fave
Haha! Thanks so much, Soren. š You had me laughing, and yes...there is quite a bit happening beneath the surface here. Iām glad it opened several doors for you, both outwardly and personally. Always appreciate your presence and support, my friend...and the fave too. š§±š„šš¤
My pleasure
The thing that hath been, is that which shall be done.
a most witty piece with devious meaning
Haha! Thanks so much, Norman. There was definitely a little grin on my face while writing this one. I'm really glad you enjoyed the ride, my friend. š§±š„šš¤
Good write T. A little-known story was that Popeye was there in those days, with his spinach too! lol.
Haha! Thanks, Orchi. You just know Popeyeus claimed he personally stacked half the bricks...right before demanding extra spinach rations and promoting himself to Royal Glugspector. š Oh boy, someon better bring a brolly! š§±š„šš¤
Your play on words is so cute! š¤£
Haha! Thanks so much, Teddy! š Sometimes, well often times, I just cannot resist. I'm so glad it gave you a laugh. š§±š„šš¤
blistering bustering beast builds bodies berating billions
Haha! Thanks, Arqios. š You definitely weren't going to let all those B's go to waste and I am glad you didn't! Always appreciate you dropping by, my friend. š§±š„šš¤
