I Floss my Tears - Poetry, day 81 of the 5 Minutes Freewrite
This is Mrs. F3nix (the 3D-Wife) original artwork. The poetry is dedicated to her.
I floss my tears beneath the yoke
I grind my shell, a limestone's joke
A potter's wheel of daunting stones
Tight tourniquet around my soul
A Möbius strip to tear apart
How shall we dodge the jester's dart?
Hey! Thank you. I love it! You seem interesting, you got my follow. Please consider following me for art, poetry and other awesomeness!
I seem interesting but it's an illusion, what you read is just a rephrasing of the yellow pages, using a very sophisticate algorithm.
@f3nix This one makes me smile :) I'm in love with an Italian woman(I only say that because you have a wife and know the language of Italy)
The poem is intriguing and makes me want to read it multiple times to fully understand, which is a good thing. The first two lines are very hard for me to decipher until I looked up the phrase 'beneath the yoke' then it all came together.
Even when we are being pushed through situations such as arguments or shame we still must floss our tears. The limestone makes quick work of grinding a shell, much like the tight tourniquet around the soul.
There's only one side to this loving.... Yet still, how do we dodge the uncanny and sarcastic jokes?
^ Was my synopsis correct?
p.s. nothing new in wallet yet o.O
Possibly the deepest comment i ever got... In a couple of days I'll be back full SP (undelegated) and vote you properly. You need to wait, in the meantime I suggest you to check @qurator and @steembasicincome (for growing).. I'll add something tomorrow ;-)
I'm a deep fellow, and you certainly are bringing it out of me!!!
Patience is a virtue that I enjoy. Okay I'm checking them out now, thanks for the headsup.
Peace

Ormai ti commento sempre con associazioni di pensieri che i tuoi scritti mi scatenano, abbi pazienza :-P
Quello è esattamente il sentimento che avevo quando ho scritto i primi versi :-) Molto molto azzeccato Marco
This is beautiful. So full of emotion. I hope you enjoyed your time with her.
Thank you my friend! Yes I hope we will soon live together again...It kinda sucks 🤔
This is beautiful and I love your wife's artwork!!!
Thanks @byn! I will bring her the compliments ..It was nice you passed by ☺️
There you go again with those words of yours...those beautiful words! So few words with so much depth...love it! : )
Thank you my feline friend! I like this idea of being minimal with words .. knowing that i managed to give you a feeling is a great satisfaction for me 😊
I like the idea of being minimal with words also, but that is not easily done and you seem to be a master of doing it.
And...I can't thank you enough for enrolling me in Steem Basic Income! That was so nice of you! I just finished reading all about it and will upvote that blog daily. I will do my best to make you proud. Really, this means so much to me; I am almost in tears. What a kind person you are and a good friend. If you think there is anything important that I need to know, please let me know. Grazie from the bottom of my heart @f3nix! : )
You are my true friend and I love my friends 😊 i really didn't do much.. you nailed it, set the automatic vote for that and it will give you a small recurring income. I invested some shares, even Marianne. Another tip, if you're not subscribed yet.. subscribe to @qurator and vote it .. it's really worth the hussle!
I am so happy that we are friends; sending my love right back at ya! I will definitely invest in shares when I get them. I am already with @quarator and just upgraded to tier 5 a few days ago, but I sure do appreciate you mentioning this to me. Thanks again my friend @f3nix for your friendship and all of your help. : )
You miss her so very much hugs
What can I do.. 😅 I met @simgirl today in discord! I hope we can chat soon too! Hugs to you dear friend 😊
we will !!! :D
It left me wanting more! Fantastic job. Beautiful words and artwork!
For some prompts poetry is the best answer I guess. Thank you so much 🙂
That's a lovely combination of artwork and poetry @f3nix. A very original response to the prompt.

Thank you @miniature-tiger .. your appreciation made my day. Thanks also for your patient work in place of Marianne..I did it on saturday, we are growing steadily aren't we?
I lost a couple of minutes staring at your wife's artwork. At first, I saw a playful scene in the red and then a fading in the blue. Then I read your poem (how often can a person say beautiful but wrenching?). Now all I can see are two halves missing pieces. I'm happy that you were able to have a wonderful time together. I wish that you and 3-D wife didn't have to go through the sadness of bein apart and will be able to be together again soon.
