Impostor Posted January 21, 2003 Report Posted January 21, 2003 I'd say that it was a riddle, but then, it's a little too easy for a riddle. Anyway, I just think why not do this for comedy's sake, even if no one but me finds it funny - who am I trying to please, right? - BlueGreenOrange RedYellowWhite I twist and turn It doesn't seem right I twist and turn But I can't find peace This is entrapment and not release BlueGreenOrange WhiteYellowRed I can't get it out of my head If only I could pull myself out of context Maybe then I'd know what to do next That's it I'm staging a protest Why do we attach labels then we can't peel them away As everything gets more muddled everyday It's the same story for everyone They call it "playing games" But it sure isn't fun Impostor laugh at yourself and you shall never cease to be amused
Rune Posted January 21, 2003 Report Posted January 21, 2003 hmm, I am horrible at riddles..so I wont even attempt to figure out what the main subject is about. Besides I think it applies to several different things depending on how you look at it. Running the words (colors) together gives it a rushed feel and adds a bit to the confusion when you first start reading it. That seems like a very effective technique when pulled off correctly.
Impostor Posted January 24, 2003 Author Report Posted January 24, 2003 I have this burning fear that someone will take this for a serious poem so I better say what the answer to the riddle is: A rubik's cube. Well, I thought it was funny. Not the rubik's cube, that's just damn annoying Impostor who pronounces "melee" differently every time he says it
Rune Posted January 24, 2003 Report Posted January 24, 2003 Ha! Ok I woulda never thought of that. Very clever.. very very clever. *was too busy trying to figure out the deep dark life secret the poem was trying to answer to realize it was a toy*
