All Comments on 'Reflections On A Typo'

I love this kind of poem--it's philosophical but simply stated so that it doesn't overwhelm--and it shouldn't because it endorses a basic but critical (at least to me) way of looking at the world. In the last line, I think you could get away without "Both." Just my opinion, but just saying "I do" would end the poem sufficiently--that "Both" sounds a bit awkward to my ear, but maybe it's just me. It's really a wonderful poem. :)

Well YDD, yes. It's semi intentional. I intended from first, but typed form, and decided to leave it in. But perhaps the line would had worked better with an added adverb.

TY all for the comments.

Most novel, refreshing, and well done.

Just one question,

Did you mean "form",

or were you typing too fast again?

It takes a poet to not just hit backspace, but to notice, reflect, and draw so much semantic and emotional insight from so little a slip. Bravo!

I thought this was going to take a different direction when I read the title. I like the way you handled it.

Have you come across the embarrassing lover/liver typo? ;)

loved this on the passion thread, very glad you posted it. really made me think about love and life and things i should really work on changing..thanks Lin :)
