Analysis of I See You



I see you.
Looking
back oh
so many
years ago.
Lying on
the couch.
Your heart
slowly being
ripped
from
your
chest.
The road
will be
hard.
You’ll need
to be
tough.
Hold on
hard.
Many
years of
unfortunate
you’ll need
to navigate.
Hold
close to
your chest
hope.
For you
will
end up
in a
wonderful
place.
Merry Christmas.

Prophet encourages (through the skeletal approach of his writings) the reader to focus on the individual meaning of each word, thus allowing its message to be front and center. Meaning that can be muted within sentences and paragraphs. This creates vividness otherwise hidden. The skeletal nature of his efforts also allows the reader to flesh out meaning based on the readers personal worldview. Thus, no two observers are reading the exact same creation. more…
