this is why I only communicate in poetry
complexity is
not what you believe it is
please try listening
There is complexity
that can only be moved around,
not eliminated.
Reminded me of a colleague who wrote his email replys as haiku. It got old pretty quickly.
So cool. One reading is “complexity is not what you believe it is”. Another is “complexity is”… “not what you believe it is”. Seems similar but the difference is subtle. Even the “please try listening” line changes in both versions. One is confrontational, the other is empathetic.
