Reese’s Pieces, Candy Kaleidoscope
~
I was being a bit of a mope,
until my dear friend Cope,
stopped by to bring me Reese's peanut butter cups and a kaleidoscope!
What jolly jiggling gleeful fun,
before all was said and done.
I must confess,
it didn’t take long for me to get buried in chocolatey goodness.
Oh, the balance of sweet and salty!
Nothing to this gratification is faulty.
Do I spy with my sugar eye a sugar coma coming?
Likely yes, soon all that is heard is snoring and humming…

WARNING. I will be tapping into one of your favorite creative tensions: The absurdity of humans worshipping their glowing rectangles as if they were tiny oracles. There’s something deliciously poetic about that contradiction, and it lends itself beautifully to an instructive proviso.

Rachel Reviews: The Spiral Archive by Pieter Hendrik
It's difficult for me to know where to start with a review of this book as it was, for me, an entirely unique experience and one that I'll probably never have again. I don't want that to be interpreted as unenjoyable but it has left me scratching my head a little and ruminating on its content, its themes and its characters.

as a big fan of reeces and whimsy, I thought this was great, well done!
Your poem's great, but I'm hallucinating after seeing this kind of picture multiple times... Is this your ceiling or something? It's confusing and cool at the same time. 😵🥴
That one came out cool...I like the paper plate one too. Fun poem, at least Cope brings chocolate and not other things...😊
This is such a sweet and fun poem! Reese’s peanut butter cups and a kaleidoscope are the perfect combo for lifting spirits.😊✨
