I knew this word coming into the freewrite. I am prepared. I once wrote a poem that featured a triangle and I’ll llink it in a bit. But as to triangles, I like them. My wedding invitation featured triangles in a sense. A cord of three strands is not quickly torn apart. triangle in nature
Triangles are the most stable shape in all of geometry. That’s why when you’re building those gumdrop-toothpick-marshmallow towers, you always want to be making triangle joints, not square ones. That shit will fall over real quick.
Alicia
Simple lines. Three to be exact.
With three corners. Three angles. Tri-angles. Always pointing you in the right direction.
Melissa
Three sides, all equal, and yet they can be so heavily weighted. How any other shape can even begin to appear as simple, and yet so complex as the triangle is outlandish, that is unless we are talking about the circle, who when paired with the triangle becomes the basis for an entire section of math. How

The triangle is the strongest geometrical shape. People tend to forget this, disregarding it for the square. The truth is, sometimes you don’t need four sides. Sometimes, having less is more. The truth is, we could all learn a lesson from triangles.

there are a lot of different triangles. acute, obtuse, all this makes me think of is my TA job, which i am about to have office hours for. i hope nobody comes in and i get a lot of work done.
amanda adams
i have a triangle. it has three sides. my triangle cannot rool, but i push it. it stumbles awkwardly down the hill until it hits a rock and breaks in half. i now have a boy half and a girl half, they were in love and now they are apart. the girl part is damaged beyond belief and dies. the boy part jumps down the rest of the hill to his death.

She was shaped like a traingle, all hips not breasts. She knew and dressed accordingly. Sometimes it occured to her that it should bother her..it didnt
She was happy

A triangle. 3 edges. So manly.
I hate it.
Circle, life, the woman !

i know too much about triangles.
for one thing- they always have three sides. if it doesnt have three sides, then it isnt a triangle.
love triangles are usually bad. just try to avoid those.
my favorite (personally) are right triangles. sexy.

Things get lost in the Bermuda Triangle. Although I’ve never been there, that’s what I hear. I suppose it’s people too. And ships and whatnot. All getting lost in the middle of the ocean. Has anyone passed through unscathed?

I am stuck in a terrible triangle. Well not really a triangle something really of a terrible mess. Between this girl who has no right doing what she is doing and my best friend, and my favorite teacher. Ugh! Why can’t people just grow a pair and not count on thier mommies, literially, to get them out of trouble.
amanda
She wept solemnly before the evening moonlight. Tears stained her nightgown like dark, moist flower petals. The triangle was complete, and there was nothing she could do about it.

I can hear the triangle chime, the winds carrying the sweet melody of music through the fields. Beautiful sound, lovely day.

Triangles are very interesting. they make me think of homosexuals because I always see the triangles with the rainbow in them. They also make me think of pyramids. I wanna make a cake that’s triangle shaped. Maybe next quarter in my advanced cakes and classical torts class I’ll get a chance to do that.

shape. geometry. love. obtuse. acute. right. 7th grade math class.

The geometric shape I hate the most. It can be symmetrical but so unfair too. So many uneven remainders of a whole. Always someone getting left out.
Do I believe in monogamy anymore?
Every time I’ve ever fallen in love, this triangle appears. There is never equality or harmony, but a triangle of three people. Fuck you, get out of my triangle!!
darla
i used to tell my maths teacher i was afraid of triangles so get out of drawing diagrams. He actually believed me! I have a bad habbit of randomly saying things that make no sense, its amazing how much people actualy believe, i told my RME teacher i eat rulers and i told my biology teacher that my cat ate my textbook. I don’t do it on purpose it just slips out. I didn’t have to draw triangles for a long time in maths.. until he brought it up at my parents evening. i was mortified!
Lily
its’ boring. but history shows: necessary. everybody seems to use it at least once in his life as an allegory. I don’t want to play it. If you want to call it play.

Triangles aren’t really anything but corners.

there are three sides and three angles. sometimes they’re obtuse, like men, or acute, like women. sesame street likes triangles alot, especially telly monster. triangles are easy instruments, but not really. ding ding ding! I win. tri-angle.

triangles are not squares. They are not circles. They are triangular and have three angles. You are wondering why I am telling you about a triangle, but then again, I am wondering the same thing. When you will read this, you will be estranged from the world.

there is a triange in the story i’m writing. a love trianlge to be exact. i’m quite fond of them, but i’ve never known why. they’re great to write about, but they’re hell to live through. there’s no reason anyone should ever have to have that problem. I hope i never i have to go through one…

A triangle is something that is not a square, or even a circle for that matter. It is, however, a triangle. Sometimes triangles are big, sometimes small. One thing is for certain, they have 3 sides.
John Triangle Regan
angular corners, sharp, jutting out into space. Threatening to burst your bubble. Menacing hypotenuses(i?). “Pythagorean”, I’ll show you where you can shove your theorem!
maddie
the triangle appeared on the page. three sides, three angles. complete. all the same, all standing for something. two thesises that together create something completely different, the synthesis.
amanda
Triangles are the strongest form of shape, which is why they are ubiquitous in building. Triangles are also the weakest shape in relationships, which makes them the topic of many movies and books.

I cut the pastry sheets into imperfect, ruched pieces of triangles; they mingle with each other, become a bigger piece, a better piece. Then I stare at the remainders of what they used to be.

triangle hieraki sets upon a sunday icecream. it melts away in the blazing sun. somewhere south east of that a ship collapses, without a trace, the trinalge of death cluthes it in its tight and firm grip, so it is said at least…

The way their love worked for one another was complicated and often misunderstood by the neighbors. Fred always just figured that Dan of the triangle was a poofter and that’s how he got along with the other two who were clearly passionately in love, once even being busted by the police for having sex in the back yard. But when Dan was asked if he was queer, he slightly tilted his head as a bird would, looked Fred right in the eye, and then kicked him in the balls.

I always feel like I’m stuck in this dumb triangle. I love him. He loves her. She loves….well, who does she love? Maybe it’s not a triangle after all.
Sometimes it feels like more of a spiral, spinning and twisting and ebbing and flowing like a monstrous river. Sometimes it feels more parasitic- feeding off our confusion. Our emotions. Using our pain to grow. Those are the nights when all he can tell me about is how beautiful she looked this morning. Or how wonderful their conversation was two evenings before. And I want to scream that I’m the one he’s talking to, to pay attention to me not her. But I can’t, and I do. Well, I could, but I don’t.
And sometimes, more often than not, it feels round. Beautiful, simple, cyclical. The days when he forgets about the other girl. The days when I feel like it’s just him and me, even if it’s not. The days when he’s mad at her, and we’re just talking. Just the two of us. In our circle. And sometimes I know that the circle’s just a dream, temporary and imperfect. But for those moments when my dreams meet reality, I’m happy in our circle. Even in its imperfections. Even though I know it’s not going to stay. But I stay. In the circle. And dreaming of it is what keeps me talking. Keeps me from screaming that I love him. That I deserve attention.
That’s our circle, and on the days when it spins into a triangle, I let my mind drift off to a cyclical place–one with just us. Just him. And me. And our love. In a circle.

How many people can you fit into a triangle? Eight? Thirteen? What if it’s a small triangle? Four? Nine?
What if you can only fit two people in the little triangle? Does that mean the laughter, the happiness, that comes out of those two people will be smaller?
No. The laughter, the joy, the love, will fill up a much greater space.
Julia
The Bermuda triangle is freakin awesome. People get lost in that place and come back like 12 years later and think it was the day they vanished.
Lea Venia
three edges, pointy, its a shape. many come in this shape.. signs, toys, blocks, triangl;es are cool shapes. they have three edges and three is an odd number . numbers are used in every day life

The Triange is the Trinity to me. It symbolizes the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. They are all one and the same. 3 points to make 1 shape.
