Blink

[an:04071140ba]Another one for the thread next door. Kind of a Haiku-Tanka-Haiku sandwich. For those who know about the thread I'm talking about, does this fit you think?[/an:04071140ba]

It is all a blur
I see that now, looking back
at what was my life

Life, a blinking eye
It appears Albert was right;
time is relative
I fear Friedrich was right, too;
eternal recurrence.....blink

Blink again, again
why do they torture me?
Those goddamn Germans

eleutheromaniac

Love this piece. It gave me one hell of a laugh.
Those germans have given me many migraines over the years.

I like the form and style of this piece it fits the poet in the variations that were made. Excellent work


warmest regards,
bob (the sith)

Well done Jason...this one really hits home. From my vantage point...it is less than a blink!

Thanks for the feedback Bea and Bob (the Sith makes an all too rare appearance on this side ). I'll be posting this in the thread when my numbers up.

Sorry, I should have been more specific; the if thread. I think this fits in loosely with the regret theme, but I'm not sure. What do you think?
