Following up on an anonymous 'like' (1)

by nat-lipstadt

~commissioned accidentally by a melody, a passing glance, a purring perchance, an idle innocent comment, to be born as the first poem of this day, @7:00am Tue Sep 18 2025, writ in haste, before departing over many islands to another place called "home"~ ---~<>~--- *sometimes, not so secret, anon, ^ sometimes, so much more, than that but a glancing of favoring, a handshake secreted, is actually felt, actually secreted, and rare though via~able, it passes through a longing traveled voyage, over wire, under sea's cabling, through space, hoisted from & by satellite over continental divides just a hop, skip and jumpstart over this tiny planet, and though, but, an amorphous 👍 thumb, a colored 💙 or collared,   or a pointing 🫵 body part the like, bears more than just a passing resemblance to another* f o u r   l e t t er   w o r d its often lost & found dear cuz ^^ full of meanings hidden, or even anon, "I'll be there shortly"^                                                          magic!                                                                                                                                                                           nml

a 'follow up' poem to

scripted ten years earlier

^

anon

"Anon" has two primary meanings: it is an abbreviation for anonymous, referring to something or someone without a known name or author, and it is also an archaic adverb meaning soon or at another time. The context determines the meaning; for example, you might see "anon" as a tag for users on a dating app to indicate they prefer not to share personal details, or you might read it in an old text to mean "I'll be there shortly"

^^

cuz

Yes, "cuz" is a common, informal abbreviation for "cousin," though it can also mean "because". The usage of "cuz" for cousin dates back to the 16th century and is a recognized slang term, often used as a term of address for friends as well as actual relatives
