Lloyd Dobler part 2- a tweet poem


A tweet by Mr. Cusack that caught my eye during the Thanksgiving weekend tweet fest mentioned in part 1:
 

"Talking to horses obsessing about sox and slippers- raises some intriguing salacious questions"
 
Say what? What does this even mean? It did raise some questions for me:

  • Is this a quote? Am I missing something here?
  • Did he spell socks as sox? or was he referencing some sports team? I think there's some Chicago sports team named something to do with sox- baseball?
  • How is the person who uses and spells salacious the same person who sent this tweet:  "even some musicians and writers have figured tat ot.. but put you faith in forbes in forbes we trust"?
  • If salacious questions come up while someone is talking to horses there may be a bigger problem than a confusing tweet

 So I decided to write in a different format (I left the sox spelling because of the question about his intent), add another dash, and then add some lines to it:
 

Talking to horses obsessing about sox and slippers-

 raises some intriguing salacious questions-

that race around inside my head crossing burning bridges-

invading my dreams of Cassiopeia dancing in the sky

 
That was fun. Makes no sense but fun nonetheless.
His turn.
