(And I do not say this without compassion.)<br /><br />I love the idea that words are echoes as well as mirrors. <br /><br />L, CClaire Beynonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00005365677016923903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5100640878581081403.post-37008454144738266872010-04-25T21:31:17.815+12:002010-04-25T21:31:17.815+12:00Hi Rebecca - I think you're right; writers are...Hi Rebecca - I think you're right; writers are born with a way of seeing - or miss-seeing - words. Or perhaps it could be called seeing into, over, around and through...? Like you, I combine numbers and words and sometimes notice the shapes and patterns of them first. I like to think there are hidden messages and that all we have to do is see the 'more' that's there.<br />Love ClaireClaire Beynonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00005365677016923903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5100640878581081403.post-17934654407522651472010-04-25T03:15:10.121+12:002010-04-25T03:15:10.121+12:00There are words within words, and also words which...There are words within words, and also words which echo other similar words, which can often call up the meaning of both words in a poem...<br /><br />I have a poet-friend who is obsessed with this (in a very creative way!).<br />When George Bush was president, he printed up bumper stickers which said:<br />buSHAMErica, with blue and red letter, the "shame" in red.T. https://www.blogger.com/profile/16509409207991963533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5100640878581081403.post-16635843532882273142010-04-25T01:55:13.736+12:002010-04-25T01:55:13.736+12:00Claire, it is not only words within words for me b...Claire, it is not only words within words for me but the abstract way I will sometimes see a word if I'm in a hurry, the slipperiness of the language itself the seemingly easy way <i>live</i> becomes <i>evil</i> or <i>vile</i> or even even, does the eye trick me or is there are there hidden messages. I love the randomness of the word verifications. Today mine is <i>standnin</i> which I saw peripherally as <i>standalone</i> then <i>standing</i> then <i>stand in</i>. Street signs become ciphers. Numbers morph into words. Don't fo4get. I think it's something writers are born with something necessary.<br /><br />RebeccaRadish Kinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06534752971317927559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5100640878581081403.post-70894581801535671992010-04-24T17:48:18.982+12:002010-04-24T17:48:18.982+12:00Thanks for your good wishes, Kay - there is plenty...Thanks for your good wishes, Kay - there is plenty of time!<br /><br />Golf, flog.
