Is Forrest alluding to the idea that he is a middleman? Yes, over and over again. I've talked about this numerous times in the past but, I have a twitchy finger and delete most of my threads and comments. Scrapbooks, etc., are full of hints to him being the middleman. Here is just one out of many : "Doug made hundreds of stone sculptures, Scottsdale wanted them, and I did the accommodating." Scrapbook 181 dalneitzel.com/2017/04/21/scrapbook-one-hundred-eighty-one/Some are easy to spot, others you have to look for. |

Alternatively, could be that "he is in the middle of the chase", i.e., in the middle of the spot that (we) the searcher has traced if we follow the instructions in the poem (like if we use the metes and bounds theory of the poem). You follow the rules, trace the shape and, there he is, right where he intended his body to be, right in the middle....

For me this is a confirming hint to the starting place.

There is no end to “me in the middle” possibilities. Shoot, me is even in the middle of omega.

As of now, some 4 1/2 years after the release of the book with the poem, is there anything you would have done different, looking back? ~Mz Oz. Well Mz Oz, there are minor mistakes in my book but they are not serious enough for me to change in reprint. Looking back, there are only 28,800 words in TTOTC and the book is thin. I might have added some additional stories, like the one about me losing the coon skin cap trying to stay ahead of a mad bull moose up Slough Creek. Or the one about my father throwing me off of a footbridge across the Madison River in the dark of night because some large animal was coming toward us and we didn’t want to meet it in the middle. I was anxious to get my treasure story in print. I have no regrets. f mysteriouswritings.com/looking-back-on-ttotc-featured-question-with-forrest/ |

Another thought..
With the many opposite (mirror as some like to say) words in the poem and the many contradictory remarks FF has said, is this a possibility?
He says 'me in the middle', but 'me' is in fact the opposite of in the middle in the word middle. It's on the edges.

Whether or not, I don't know, but I love that possibility........that is so cool..... Thanks for sharing! |
