Cube

Contributed by starry_night on Thursday, 17th August 2006 @ 08:24:50 PM in AEST
Topic: abstract



Confined within a perfect space, yet beautiful in its symmetry
More depth, profound than any square
Each side designed with Rubik flair

Lopsided diamonds joined as one, to form dimensions gracefully
Twelve edges touched in parallel
Restrained within a box’s shell

Dense and hollow - words reviled, bandied round by other shapes
Not realising its ability
For holographic imagery

Send me to a universe, defined by pure geometry
Where quadrilateral wishes on
Rhombus stars, my dreams are spun

… cube.

Welcome to YPDC-
thank you for this..

Fortunately, I came first.. and I'm surely, not the last..
The sharpest of minds, even by the greatest shard, have seldom come to this.
And though, I don't often use words such as, brilliant or genius.. both would apply here.. and in that order. Thanks again-


Wating for more-

B

Wow, this is different.

I'm not entirely sure what to make of it.

It;s good, anyway, I like how it's set out and how it makes me think.

Good write,
Phil xxx

Couldn't wait. Meticulous construction, hypnotic and smooth as silk, and such imagery! What a wonderful perspective you have (no pun intended).

The concept of bullying among the shapes had never occurred to me until this read - poor dull, oafish cube, you have more depth and capacity than all those flatliners.

more please,

Spike

Congratulations, Jan. You have recieved, on this post, praise from two of probably the five main masters of words on ypdc (in my opinion). I agree wholeheartedly with their comments. As soon as Spike, Breezy and Nazmythian post their comments, ya got all five! All this cowboy poet has to add is, bring on more of this magnificent writing! After readin' this write, I'm sittin' here wishin' the world was cubic! Wekcome to ypdc.

Whoops. Spike already commented and that number ain't five, it's four. Surely there are five or more, but these four are (again in my opinion) in a class of their own. It was a "senior cowboy moment" on my first comment.

I am almost too humbled to comment here .. (after
ken's far too generous mentiont .. thank you for that, ken)

but .. I can't NOT say how much I truly enjoyed this.
With each line .. with each stanza I thought, now
this is the one that gets to me .. but NO!
I was captivated right through to the end.

Excellent first post. Truly a masterpiece.
his write and the
CUBE...

Years ago, I read a poem from a poetess called Dreamweaver.
I was astounded by the beauty and poetic prowess right off.....and now, years later, I am still gobsmacked by her ( your) words. Roses at your feet

I like your style. You dive into the poem, without hesitation, immerse yourself in it, writing all you will with great skill, and then ending it as abruptly, with grace.
Well done.
Take care,
David
