Nine: Unbreakable
A reverse word nonet


we
are a
union of a
kind of sanity with
truth that blend together in
promises that are kept even when
made difficult from being stirred inside the
primordial world pot and that long expedition to
Raven’s cauldron that took nine years. Nine is Unbreakable!
This is a reverse word nonet in which there are 9 lines with ascending number of words per line from one to nine. This poem is the twin of Nine: Promises
I am playing with geometry, words, and numbers. The shape in the image of the poem is a triangle. A triangle is a shape that can carry strong loads and handle stress and compression. In addition, the number 9 is interesting in that the value of all multiples of nine when its digits are added together equal nine (18, 1+8=9; 27, 2+7=9 and so on). Numerologically it is seen as unbreakable. Together the poems create an Unbreakable Promise!
