Autoplay

< there's a point to that,
one to this >,
none to this O,
O none to that.

‘that' or ‘this',
as pointed in this rhyme,
depends on space and time.

COMMENTS OF THE POEM

Michael Walker 04 December 2019

I often hesitate between 'this' or 'that' myself when writing. I can see how they depend on space, and now I think I see the connection with time. A linguistic, analytic poem that definitely succeeds.
