Etcetera 3

Etcetera 3

A Poem by Anand Sehgal

A hidden current,
        Well dressed quicksand ,
                   A stiff  test !

                         A courageous trier ,
                             An occasional triumph,
                                Wave of a new trend !

    Stupid way of imitation,
           Intrusion of glitches ,
                Immersion of institution !
                                  
                                     A period of suspension,
                                           Act of self-questioning ,
                                                An upgraded screening test !

As I read these I wonder about the inspiration for each as they are not readily apparent in what subject they have in common but they are intriguing and give one some food for thought, something to make more wrinkles in our brains. I enjoyed the structure, and at first glance thought them to be senryus but realized the were not which peaked my interest even more as they all seem "stand alone".

Sorry, I'm confused with my interpretations. I know this piece offers a significant message but my brain can't decipher it somehow. Still, you have an interesting and powerful word choice here. :)

Life is complicated and it seems to happen in stages. You've depicted that here.

I was confused on this one, sorry. I read it as a judgement based on appearances and ultimately needing different standards. I'll keep trying LOL

in a nutshell, it is a ever-running corrective loop
Wow, very cool my friend. Taking these steps to find that it is all only what has already been...just more.

Thanks a lot Jack. Yes this was a sort of assessment :)
these were very interesting to read! i can feel the link between each section but cannot fathom exactly what makes them connect. the terse form leaves a lot of room for imagination in this intriguing piece. great work!

Thanks a lot Rafia, for kind comments :D
Especially in this last two there is an alliteration that is sublime. The third reminds me so much of my daily dealings with the corporate machine.
