Sign Inventory - week 10

Robert Creeley - For Friendship

It shows a continuous cycle or circle of people, chained off, and pared off in twos. Humans do tend to come in pairs. Friendship is joined by hands and is a walk. The two short passages  paint a simple image but enough to get a point across of enough significance for the poem to matter. There are only eight lines and twenty-seven words, which is very small. But it is a cute poem. And the connection of people if very heightened, there has to be a connection of the hands as in holding.
