This rope I do not remember where is starts or ends I walk barefoot below it's dark above a star This rope no yellow brick road no company I walk cold hands my heart thumps This rope is it an umbilical cord? I walk between life and death eternally This rope this Möbius strip I walk eternally *** September 14, 2017 Copyright © Darren White

A very creative poem, Darren. I love learning new things ... this Mobius strip is something that tingled my ears. Ty for the increase in knowledge you provided. This alone made this poem worthwhile. A very fine write, my friend. Love and peace always.

Instead of thanking you individually, I'll just insert here an interesting link about the Mobius Strip, seen from a very different, more philosophical point of view: http://taomath.org/2016/03/the-deep-symbolism-of-the-mobius-strip/ Enjoy :) And remember: it is a POEM, I am not talking about ME!

A rope can be used to hang oneself or save one from a fatal fall. The midwife in me hopes it is an umbilical cord Darren.

It's a poem written around the Mobius Strip, not a personal experience :)

What is your mobiles strip and why can't you leave it? I had to look it up and my brain started screaming and ran away. Sorry Darren I am not very scientific.

It's a fun thing Patricia

I agree with Agnes, this has an anxious quality to it, something feels out of place ~ not your words but your projection of deathly images.

Interesting poem, Darren. It has a disconcerting feel to it, nicely done.
