I have never heard of or seen this type of poem. It was a beautiful read though the font was a little difficult for me. Thank you for sharing your work. Many blessings to you

Thank you.
Comment from Gloria ....
I think you have waxed poetically on the ephemeral nature of cultures reflected in not only our own mortality, but patterns of civilization.
In the end no one wants to take responsibility, as instead it is much more comforting to lament our losses and play "the blame game".
Excellent entry into this contest, and many thanks for sharing.

Comment from K.L. Rockquemore
I enjoyed reading this insightful poem. You did a great job with the prompt, very creative. This is well conceived, expressed and presented. The font is an appropriate choice, although a little hard to read.
The rhymes flow naturally without force and create a fluid sensation while reading.
The use of proclamations, HEY, WOW, and SHUCKS, worked well as they emphasized the feeling and gave visual dimension.
I hope this does well in the contest, good luck.

Comment from Elviss
A deeply introspective poem that touches on the themes of change and human curiosity. I loved how the cover art encompasses a futuristic flair, with the title putting the cherry on top of a greatly coherent piece. And the Latin description, impressive to say the least.

I never heard of Ubi stunt before, so this being my first one I think it is the best I ever read. I think it will make a good entry for the contest, good luck. I do think your final thought it right on the money! Good job. Terry.

Comment from GTG345
Took me a while to figure out what flux means the change in which things appear through a surface or substance. The poem to me is like a story being told as things are missing and it takes time to think about it. Cool optical allusion that you put on the picture. Good luck in the contest!

Comment from LateBloomer
Hello JLR, a timely poem. I like the sentiments in your poem and your upbeat attitude which can be difficult to keep in today's environment.
Your poem reads and flows well, and asks many questions that we have all asked ourselves from time to tome. Of special note:
I see everything changing with my good eye.
I want to ask the simple question why?
(Good question ... Why, especially on systems that were working properly I sit and shake my head while I ask myself why.)
Well-chosen photo. A pleasure to read. Keep the blue waters flowing. LateBloomer

That's an interesting one, Jim. I am usually big on rhyme and meter, but the content outweighs the technical stuff in this one. You should do well in the contest.
