::Some Blind Observations::

unintelligible whispers ~ cause the weirdest reverberations it sounds too good to be true ~ is a noisy misinterpretation a chameleon in a flawed mirror ~ kissed it’s own aberration the pot overheard the kettle whistle ~ a steamy admiration a little magnetism is good ~ too much will bring polarisation i put these monokus together ~ with mostly misinformation By David Kavanagh hms

Blindingly Observant Magnetic Chameleon like No - Information - Missing Reverberates on a higher level Clever , thoughtful If 1 is willing to see or delve into the reflection in the mirror

I’m not sure if quite refreshed yet Christopher, but I do kind of like the idea of a chameleon looking into a flawed mirror, don’t ask why it just seemed appropriate for this one, cheers David

Heya Dilly, that was indeed part of the idea behind these Monokus, I was hoping they might spin off minds in different directions, great to hear from you, cheers David

Monoku madness. At least you didn’t have the pot calling the kettle black as some point out the flaws in others when they have identical faults. Magnetism can draw things together that shouldn’t be attracted to each other. I’ll let unintelligible whispers go unnoticed. You know the path I’m on with my comments so I don’t need to whisper.

Chinese Whispers can certainly contain a lot of misinformation/misinterpretation, so always best to spit it out plainly Lin, and using metaphor if need be, Monoku madness yes I can go along with that on the surface, but always a little more going on just below, cheers David

Clever mentoring, it's good to know how you feel about unintelligible whispers, anything like careless whispers? Sage advice. Now maybe you can put an avatar together, show your best mean guy side, (not that you have one) lol!

Oh I’m a mean guy in the average sense of the word Anaya, I mean what I do, and mean what I say, and always (listen without prejudice) an Avatar might be interesting, cheers David

Heya Jan, I enjoyed putting these ones together, just to give an extra dimension on the vagaries of what we believe to be falsehoods and truth, thanks so much for the kind comment, cheers David

Craetive and entertaining writing, David. Your compilation of Monokus is excellent poetry, my friend. Much is hearsay and inference as you state in the final Monoku. I liked it and enjoyed reading your poetry today. Some could be true or false, thus being misinformation. You made me think, usually that's a good thing. :-) Have a great October! Bill

It’s always good to think Bill, I think so too, very little we can take at face value with misinformation rampant around the world these days, but you’re an open minded guy and should be fine, I appreciate all your kind comments today, cheers David

That would be the perfect summation of this one Victor, deep but also light on the surface, thanks so much for stopping by, cheers David
