Last week, I was making my way to and from Madison, Wisconsin, attending and presenting at an academic conference. So... I'm back! This week's the phenomenal Poetry Bus has Dana the Bug driving us. She has given us a one-liner to consider, "I am a crooked line." Well, the first thought that came to mind was FRACTALS! To view more fractals and listen to some ambient music, click HERE.

Fractal Force
I am a crooked line.
My course
parallels spirit
conforming
non-conformist
weaves between
giving and receiving
audaciously
audaciously
on the fringe of
purity
infinite
ubiquitous
love

I love fractals! I think you've captured them very well in this poem.
ReplyDeleteFractals are very nice served on a bed of rice.
ReplyDeleteUnusual poem!
when running witht he spirit you often find your self non conforming but on the side of love...nice...i like it...
ReplyDeleteFirst Bus Ride
The force be with you ~ the fractal force! Nicely done!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Ms. Dana! Wonderful prompt!
ReplyDeletePeter, you always bring a smile to my face. Thanks.
Brian, Thank you for your insightful comment, and welcome aboard the Bus!
Helen: and with you! Thank you!
Clean, pure,spare(deceptively)simple,just lovely!
ReplyDeleteNothing crooked about that. It was just straight great!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Peadar!
ReplyDeleteAnd thank you, too, Elaine!
Very colorful-and fun, Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI got the sense of a weaving, growing, colourful changing fractal, so I'd say job well done!
ReplyDeleteA 3-D fractal is something else, as is your interpretation of the prompt this week. But the link below your fractal picture tells me I'm trying to steal it! Is it just me? Or is it my Mac Powerbook?
ReplyDeleteThe Bus prompt was thrillingly appropriate for you, Jeanne. Look what your circuitous vision hath done! Fractals are beloved to me too, and it's a lovely drawing.
ReplyDeleteWe’ve all gone crooked
Thanks, Izzy!
ReplyDeleteFascinating, Ms. Socks! Thank you!
Dr. FTSE. If you want to view the youtube video of fractals with the ambient music, click onto the word, HERE in my first paragraph.
I found the photo on Google Images, and it is protected, so no, you cannot use it again. Perhaps, if you google Fractals, though, you can find it there.
Chris, thanks so much for your kind and reflective comment. We're a crooked lot indeed!
