Description In their not fitting together
they bring to mind
almost everything
except for puzzle pieces,
certain words on certain pages,
and those rare shapes which can
without fuss or deformation
tesselate the plane.

Rachel needs to be here. Like now.

Is she? I realize I'm slightly late in reading this, so if she did join, I want her screenname!

It may be short but it's not lacking in content. Certainly a very thoughtful poem. And thanks for enriching my vocab.

Btw forgot to say that everyone should DA if they feel they can contribute with something, and this was definately a good start

And tesselate isn't in my (head/online/offline (book)) dictionary, so I guess I'll never know

A short one tho, not often you see those, she speaks in quotes (ie writes in them), wich is kinda unusual. Quite good tho. She should try and arrange the words in another way, maybe 1 more/less on some points, but that's nothing important really.

heh.. I had to sit for like 5 minutes and try to remember what tesselate meant, before I read the poem. I felt so stupid when I finally remembered.

anyways.

it sounds so casual. just as a mild observation, I guess. like if i were to say "that's a fine arrangement of irises, and tuplips, and a great contrast with the ivy" but, it still holds some meaning to it, the statement and message, as if the flowers i meantioned.. had. uh.. some meaning I guess..

Not often do I see short, precise poems that feel RIGHT, and mean anything too obvious, and I NEVER got a shorter poem of my own to come out good, like that, but this one was really good. (yay for run on sentences. I am a good writer, I swear, just not now)

I think it was a great illistration for the subject, and wonderfully said.

(hopefully what I said makes sense, I just got home from a long quick paced night.)
