"Analysis" [Reflections On Book - 100 Ideas That Changed Graphic Design Stephen Heller and Veronique Vienne - #19]

Suggestions of a deeper layer to find
Of meanings there which to a viewer’s mind
Could then evoke responses far beyond
The obvious, draws many thinkers on.

For humor, puns, and plays on concepts seen,
Release the tension (humor’s raised, I mean);
Inviting analytic process up
To surface – asking, “Have you learned enough –

“Or is there more which you were hungry for,
Which up ’till eating you’d not known before,
Just how much hunger had been down below
Awareness? – Take a moment let me show –

“You layers within layers of the yarn,
I here depict of issue, fun, or harm;
As you peruse my work it then can sink
In through your mental portals – make you think.”

Lord, this is of the meaning which I feel
Augmented text could summon, thus appeal
To readers of my novels multi-ways;
Thanks for the concept – all of which now says –

To me, as I now start this phase of life
From bottom, building upwards through the strife,
Which comes as economics tumbles down
Like communism – with perplexing frown.

Thanks Lord for this.
