The Skeptic's Kaddish 🇮🇱 
“Meaning lies as much
in the mind of the reader
as in the Haiku.”
― Douglas R. Hofstadter, Gödel, Escher, Bach: an Eternal Golden Braid

Meaning lies all the time 🙂
Word.
Yes 🙂
The meaning lies in the interpretation of the reader. IMHO
Yes❣️
Restricting nature of some forms of poetry, but makes the poems all the more powerful.

a breath of fresh sense –
meaning arrives?
So many different meanings are possible – what was written, what was read, what was revealed and what was hidden, not to mention (but I’m going to anyway) that which was the intention of the author versus the meaning gleaned through the lens of experience by the reader…
🙂 I am in full agreement, Muri 🙂

Truth or fiction? I’ve been told truth lies in fiction. 😉
