Vertices iv

entry picture

Vertices lll

Jan folded the letter

running a finger along its crease.

She looked up-

somebody was explaining functionality.

She stared:

the new argument was written

on the white board-

she returned to the letter.

Another fold another plane,

pressing and creasing,

opening, rereading,

vertices missed,

words realigned.

Sentences brokered

with each new configuration,

yet its meaning reformed.

 

He- was disengaged

she- was misplaced.

Incongruent.

She rose and left the room.

There would be many such lessons.

I have been fascinated by an ongoing feel with some of your work Tommy. I almost seem to be watching the Matrix, as if you are examining one pocket of experience and drawing it out like a thread . am I anywhere close with that? Respectfully Ray

'yet' meaning despite the folding of the paper, this new alignment of words - the syntax of the letter remains. Folding the letter can not obliterate its content. Tommy

Fabulous - not sure why. Why do you say 'yet...'?
