It does

Me thinks it does as well…

I feel the arguments as to whether or not it is a poem are moot at best. Even for Wiley it is a horrible poem and not in the least humorous which I thought was the point of a comic strip.

Not so sure it is supposed to be funny as it is to comment on something such as workplace romance. It seems to be saying to let some things remain a fantasy and enjoy them, rather than to pursue the fantasy and be disappointed or heartbroken. (but that’s just me)

There is usually a message or point when Wiley goes poetic.I just don’t get it.

“Morons. I’ve got morons on my team,” -P. Garris

@Jeff0811 I agree with you. Sounds like a disillusionment with a romance. Maybe the illusion is more fun but reality is more tangible.

Sounds like someone’s sending a personal message to someone else. This, too, shall pass.

Beautiful! And true.

Would go better on February 14th…

Your babbling makes no sense.

i don’t know. seems this strip has really gotten sucky in the last several years. kinda like a regurgitated dennis the menace.

@jeff0811 – I can think of a couple of those in my life. I thought of them when I read the poem. I think you did as well. “. . . It might have been”

wiley’s latest poem is very familiar ground for me…stated another way: when you all in love with a friend you can’t go back to being friends again…

Wiley is wily.

and the poem is about outlook on lifebe unhappy with what is and dwell on thator consider what might have been and enjoy the thought.I’m not sure I agree with all of the thought but the concept that outlook is up to us is dead on the mark.-somewhat like the one who bemoaned lack of shoes until he noticed the one without feet

For crying out load people. I ain’t gots no book learning. So I like it.
