Interesting to use symbols. I like it.
Hi! Nice to see you here. Thanks for the visit.
wonderful book Petru..and playful in the best sense of “playful serious”. Love it!
Thanks Jana! The whole thing is at https://pviljoen.wordpress.com/2015/05/21/artist-book-collaboration/
It was great fun!
Words of inspiration written in a beautiful way. Beautifully written.
Smart idea to edit an existing poem to fit the form. Fun wordplay.
I loved just looking at the way the words appear, without thinking of what they mean.
🙂
Love not just the play with words but also with chäråctérs
It was for an artist book collaboration and I wanted to be creative the way the text looked as well as what it said.
a fun write 🙂
It was!
What a fun, creative piece this is. I simple LOVE “in the middle of the muddle of the puddle.” Such amazing sound bump in that.
Thanks!
I liked your use of stormy text to show that this has to subside to make sense out of it. I wonder if all text is a kind of storm that we calm by making sense out of it.
Indeed!
I love your play with words, even though I have to work at it. A different kind of graphic poetry for me that is interesting and rewarding. Makes me rethink language.
