The power of semiotics! Another of your extremely imaginative and magnetic pieces.

Why thank you, Mister Write, so generous of you... and it actually says something, it’s legit. I’m sleep-deprived, but I wanted to get it said.

I can parse out a number of lines....from what I can deduce, Umberto Eco would have enjoyed it! Anything that challenges the reader (this piece, the crossword poems) is a benefit to the reader and a credit to the author.

Dat's sick. I got 7-8 lines in and though WTF!? I'm reading this! Shit!
Too weird.
Be back to finish! :)

Hey you, wait!
For a year’s paid sub, I’ll email you the entire original - in English of course!😆

It’s really rather heartwarming.🔥

Oh gosh, ma fille, “a one size fits all policy” is how if’s been all my life when you have abilities but they originate from a mind that’s simply wired differently. Dyslexics are special alright, but not special needs... we are special in our perspectives of life and everything in it. I’m always pushing the envelope, and writing outside the box = my safe zone. Raawr!
I’m glad I went with my inner voice as soon as I saw and read up on your comp theme. It came to me so strong, I stayed up all night to get it right, and ready to post this morning.
I’m so honored and moved by your comment, and that you accept my effort.

Oh I’m so grateful to know this, dearest sister - I think you understand why, I sense the positivity...and thinking - thinking is very very good.
And I’m one big smiley face because of your enjoyment, too.
Oh! And my wishes for wonderful things during the holidays.

Ah my eyes, my eyes!
That was fun (and trippy). The waybacks are always fun.
Good luck in the comp.

Hi Wally, and thank you. You remember the WABAC, otherwise popularly referred to as the Wayback (Time) Machine? Those were fun episodes for me that I’d watch on the Nickelodeon Channel as a little one.

Dear JP,
I have come and gone on this half dozen times and still making return trips. It’s fantastic! It’s doing my eyes in but absolutely fabulous. It’s a blast making up the words I can’t really conjure for my story line, which I’m finding half the fun. Good luck in the comp. Excellent write. No- make that brilliant write!! H🌷

Ohhh my dear Honoria, whose words turn into rose buds. I’m enthralled as you shared your reaction to my coded opus if you will. It just now came to be. I don’t know if it’s an appropriate term, I’m not bothered about it, I just like the way it sounds.

What a wonderful comparison to make as a comparison for using numerals as words. With my gratitude & thanks, dear Kathy.
