regressive progress

progress gets regressed
but I digress
not one iota from pages
I could decipher.
writing with invisible ink
you coded it too
much precautions
totally useless

  1. Happy New Year to you Gautami - you've started off with yet another enigmatic and powerful piece which is really making me think. I can feel the strength of the person under that invisible ink..Jae

  15. Gautami, Happy New Year! Great start. The invisible ink, the code... signs of that creative frustration we all experience from time to time... at least that's what I got from it.

    Your poetry is such that there can be many meanings derived, and that's part of the beauty of your writing. I'm pretty literal, but you have the knack for the ethereal.

    Here's mine...

  16. Too much precaution-totally useless.

    I never thought of that. I'll be thinking about that because frankly, I'm all about caution.
