Fascinating. Your mind works quite differently than mine. I want TIME to do this! I applaud the fact that you were able to uniquely and creatively produce something poetically with this topic. Genius. Great job and keep thinking like this because I am impressed. Beyond belief.

Very interesting! I had never heard of a Mobius strip. Thanks for the explanation, and your poem is wonderful. I love that the 1st and 2nd lines mirror each other. I see the Mobius strip in your words. Nicely done.

Hello Lordinajar, I am hearing/knowing about the Möbius for the first time and thank you for sharing your knowledge.

This innovative poem is awesome... reading the same forwards and backwards. How delightful is the human mind!

I truly enjoyed the presentation and the notes you provided.

Cheers!

Interesting concept, interesting 5/7/5 poem.

I had not heard of a mobius strip so I will have to google it and see what I've been missing. Haha

Fun poem.

Oh yea, the infamous Möbius strip! What possibilities you have twisted in this syllable restricted verse.

Do like the waltzing imagery!

Minor suggestion: some FS members may have visual acuity issues and may find reading your script font difficult. If you insist on the italics, it is IMHO redundant in script.

Consider centering your short verses.

Good luck for your contest entry.

    Thank you Mark for a great review. I acted on your advice and changed the font, centering etc.

Playtime! I love the mobius strip too... i am more used to it being called the moebius band. It is a fascinating thing to play with, especially cutting as you have suggested.
What a cool idea to make a haiku about it. Well done.

Just love it! A good part of the fun writing in the Fanstory app. is seeing how playful different people are and how they extract something quite lovely out of nothing.
I didn't actually try it but it does sound very playful and fun.. Good Luck.
