As if you don't know, the ugly part is the fake Jack story.
Unlike CU, I DON'T SPY on peeps, so I don't know either your real identity or that of you're (I can misspell 2!) dad.
However, if your statement is true, I'm sorry to hear he's in hospital-- hope he gets better soon !

Yea that’s is ugly. I forgive Jack. And I don’t read into all that.

I’m pretty sure there’s a bigger purpose for Jack we can only hope. Forrest did say something about Hope didn’t he?

I am totally amazed -- TOTALLY, AH TELL YEW -- that you can do it without using highly specific anagrams taken from the babble. I prefer highly specific meatballs taken from my spaghetti.

You got meatballs & spaghetti on the brain, prolly 'cos you consume vast quantities ! However, this diet is beneficial for problem solving.
2 anagrams, in particular, describe the immediate location of Fenn's 'end of the rainbow'. (These 2 are better structured than probably all
of those presented by Anna G, 1 is what I call a complex anag., however I won't define this here)

[Not4but242Walk]

If this is a true statement, and so far as I am concerned, I have found it to be true based upon all my postings of details and layers I have found within the Poem.

With that being said....could it be that the "end game" has also been written within the Poem, for us all to seek out?

Personally, I had posted the following breakdown of the Poem in my "Indulgence" thread on THOR - which clearly shows my interpretation:

https://www.hintofriches.com/forum/t...174#post223174

=========================

Stanza 1 - The introduction

Stanza 1:
As I have gone alone in there
And with my treasures bold,
I can keep my secret where,
And hint of riches new and old.

- defines the final location as a place he knows
- clearly shows it as a place he has fond memories of
+ quote ref: "I'm gonna make it work no matter what." - f
- a place that contains past and present treasures he has accumulated or had been accustomed to being part of his life
+ "his adventures"

Stanzas 2 thru 4 - The Map

Stanza 2:
Begin it where warm waters halt
- clue #1 - a specific location / the starting location

And take it in the canyon down,
- no clue - a direction to travel from clue #1

Not far, but too far to walk.
- no clue - a direction to travel from clue #1

Put in below the home of Brown.
- clue #2 - a direction to take after the searcher locates another specific location

Stanza 3:
From there it's no place for the meek,
- clue #3 - a specific location and then the preparation of a specific direction to take

The end is ever drawing nigh;
- clue #4 - a specific location and an alert to look for another specific location

There'll be no paddle
- clue #5 - a specific reason/reference associated to clues #4 and #6

up your creek,
- clue #6 - a specific location associated to clue #5

Just heavy loads and water high.
- no clue - a specific description of the previous three clues - clue #4, #5, & #6

Stanza 4:
If you've been wise and found the blaze,
- clue #7 - a specific location

Look quickly down,
- clue #8a - a specific reason/reference and a specific instruction to take

your quest to cease,
- clue #8b - a specific location associated to clue #8a

But tarry scant
- clue #9a - a specific reason/reference and specific instruction to take

with marvel gaze,
- clue #9b - a specific reason/reference associated to clue #9a

Just take the chest and go in peace.
- no clue - if all previous clues are followed precisely, this shows the searcher has completed the quest/journey/adventure.
- The chest is found.

Stanzas 5 & 6 - Legal and Closing Summation

Stanza 5:
So why is it that I must go
And leave my trove for all to seek?
The answers I already know,
I've done it tired, and now I'm weak.

- explains what he has done
- gives the reasons why he did it

Stanza 6:
So hear me all and listen good,
Your effort will be worth the cold.
If you are brave and in the wood
I give you title to the gold.

- explains how the searcher is to figure out the Poem
- includes vague hints to what the outcome will be

=========================

Now, if we were to just look at the last two stanzas above - #5 & #6 - you can see that I had included as an interpretation, that they contain "vague hints to what the outcome will be".

Could those stanzas truly contain specific data to when a disclosure will be made? Do they contain a "how" the reveal will be made?

We all realize that the Poem "contains everything" based upon Forrest's own words, so maybe we should be looking at these stanzas for the answers we all seek.

Today, is the beginning of any and all "new discoveries" I expect to reveal and have a better understanding there of.

Who's with me?

A new adventure awaits us all.

Be safe.

"I've done it tired and now im weak" is the one phrase from the poem that kept me up at night. I still to this day cant make heads or tails of it. We have both past and present tenses.... We have a weak old man who later says " dont search where an 80 year old wouldnt go". Weak? I would say Forrest was never 'weak'. Anyone who fought off cancer, i doubt, would describe themselves as weak for hauling a treasure to a location.

Then ill turn over on the other side of the bed and say " well anyone would be weak after that ordeal for half a day". But he did it tired first... before he became weak. So he was tired first then weak?



Like i said... this line has haunted me lol.

The sub definitions of simple words such as tired and weak- have also kept me up at night.

For instance.... Ive done it tired (Definition 3: trite, hackneyed) and now I'm weak (Definition 3: not factually grounded or logically presented).


Just one of many examples of how we can interpret Fenn in different ways, using nothing but a dictionary and the poem.

Here is a thought. When the poem says, "Not far, but too far to walk", maybe Forrest isn't talking about some absolute distance but rather a "concept" (which he mentioned in a Lorene Mills interview in 2013, but then he acted like he didn't mean to say that). This concept is explained in the preface to the book TFTW where a young Forrest could walk 10 miles in a river but an old Forrest could not.

So, what if young Forrest did walk from WWWH in the canyon down to the home of Brown? Then, an old Forrest could not and therefore it is TFTW.

But, then we get to "Why is it that I must go...." to which the answer is supposedly "I've done it tired, and now I'm weak". In reality the answer is that Forrest decided to hide the treasure as a way to deal with his death after realizing he probably wasn't going to be able to go and die at his very special spot. Also though, if he did indeed visit the spot when younger by walking whereas now it is TFTW, then it would .make sense now that he is weak (old) that he would not walk but rather drive (done it tired, in other words in a vehicle with tires).

This is also why Ive started to believe the "it" we are beginning is a gaze. If we begin our gaze at wwwh, and take our gaze in the canyon down, we should be able to still see where nfbtftw is- we can then make a choice that were not as tired as fenn and walk... or we can drive closer and put in below the hoB if we decide to take the journey as the 80 year old took it.

The short story
Poem with the map shows a Native American
Bent over the poem looking down
The kly in quickly makes a face looking down
What Forrest wants you to notice bottom left corner of the poem
The key word and starting point is cleverly given
If you read the whole TS Elliot's Little Giddings poem. Then of course you know he said.
What we call the beginning is often the end.
And to make an end is to make a beginning
The end is where we start from And every phrase and every sentence that is right.
And you can listen for yourself. I didn't include the link.
9 clues that gives you the key word that tells you where to start
I GIVE YOU YOUR SO I'VE THE AND SO
T. A. OS
If you turn the poem with map upside-down
You will see Native American faceing left with Taos in the ear.
To Find the truth about.
The Home of brown .
BLAZE IN SPANISH IS LASERO LIKE LASERO PEAK
HEAR ME ALL AND LISTEN GOOD THE WHOLE STORY ON MEDIUM SEARCH :
Forrest fenn if I find your treasure do have to share it with my brother?
