OMG, he did answer. Thank you Forrest, you made my day shine. In the recent past, someone mentioned the 24 in a post and I thought it would be an good question to ask. So much for the three minute egg.

Forrest, since there are 24 poem lines and 24 hours in a day, does the poem have something to do with time, even if it is metaphorical? Martha Pemegano No Martha, it does not. You are overcooking the poem. f
Caps used: NMY Nmy phonetically is enemy.
Time is the enemy?
Time was in the trash... Wasted time?
M: "...does the poem have something to do with time,..." F:
"...You are overcooking..."
Is a statement of time.

So much for Robert Redford's book... LOL! I guess the same can be said for all the other books mentioned or hinted at (cough) in TTOTC. Power up for βtheβ poem purist! π Seannm

Too much time in the heat = overcooking.

Power up for βtheβ poem purist! π Seannm He also might be saying that those who observe that there are X of something in the poem (e.g., lines or sentences) and X of something else (e.g., clues) -- and then go on to claim that this is more than mere coincidence -- are "overcooking the poem." I could be wrong about that. But I think I'm not.

"It's not just a sentence, its a craft" f lummifilm.com/AUDIO/doug.mp3It would be great if Forrest would come out and definitively state that the nine sentences in the poem are not the nine clues that he refers to in the line just prior to the poem, but he has not. Therefore all we have is conjecture. But maybe you could ask Jenny to ask for you. I would love for Forrest himself to give me some direct and definitive confirmation that my methodologies and theories were wrong. Until then, my path is true. Seannm

If the poem has nothing to do with time does that also eliminate the theory that the clues might be chronological or contiguous in time as they appear in the poem? Or that the omegas have no relevance to time?

So Jenny, you're not a little bit suspicious that a 3-year-in searcher appears here out of nowhere, and then asks a question for you to forward to Forrest, and it's answered almost immediately? As Anna Graham (whose avatar reveals her theme of poem focus) pointed out on THOR today, "Martha Pemegano" is an anagram of "Anagram the poem." So at the very least, Martha (like Anna) is a fan of poem anagramming.
