Poetry Postulate M-R-T

Everything is a metaphor
everything a clue;
one and one isn't always two.

Nothing is disconnected
each individual reality true.

Everything is a metaphor
everything a clue;
where one and one isn't always two.
Nothing is ever disconnected
each individual reality is true.

Well Crypticbard,

I find the title cryptic but I love the poem. That's not a criticism. I just don't get it (the title). I'd rip out a couple of words (where, ever) to make it as sparse as possible and take a second look at the punctuation but there's nothing to change here really. It reads as airly as a world of illusion.

In comparing,

(thanks for the side-by-side), I can't decide which I like better. I'm a big help, huh?! I guess you'll have to see what some others say.
