You do the Math

Because I only know Words; and

Only know numbers through words.

The Math and numbers may precede Word and words.

I do not recall which nor even whom could knowingly say either way.

What You call approximation (is still assumptive);

we in words call assumption (often purports as axiomatic);

those in logic call axiomatic (remains approximative).

To depower the danger of improper axioms and assumption:

Explicitly say It outloud in and with thoughtful dispassion,

then wait to feel any feedback of Its resonance with those able to hear.

Assumption then becomes mere assertion

-a simple contention made available for public consumption and comment.

The R&D Man at the Station

He’s slim in silver:

Dark glasses and ten thousand LP`s, EP`s, and CD’s.

He plucked my disc, but I beseeched “can we be sure yet?”

What he said I cannot be sure

but it was either/or “you surely are / you surely are not on reorder.

Disingenuity

Smiles steeped in stillness;

superiority situated in silence.

It is tart, so, pucker up.

Pardoning your progress–

and your precious predilections.

Prefer perforation

Seration from your own sermon, please.

Paragons are only prerogatives.

Made

You shall make it utterably Swift because I am inexorable, unyielding, and relentlessly

Merciful.

I feel you like a swift breeze across my brow, made apparent only through the

Perspiration of my effort under intent.

I do naught but believe that I will not go against myself.

I submit. I am love.

AEm Written.

Tolle lege. Anon, anon.

You see Eve, and/or Lilith.

But I’m Helen Estelle and Alice Ladder

Give.

Back to the Forest

I went back to the Forest to transform.

Upon leaving, I found myself and there she was unrecognized but not yet unrecognizable.

A wise man once said…

In his Honor Thesis, James Joseph Black wrote, “the young have read little and compared less.  Stringency is not their forte.”

​The mind was dreaming. The world was its dream

Aside: A side note about 2 Common English Words

“Terrific”, like “awful”, used to mean something quite diferent…

Ballad For The Petty & the Scholarwood Bee:

What did I remember that I had prior forgot; &, upon thinking “hey-don’t forget – “, immediately then forgot?

anon, anon(KRO)

Caught up with Xeno

Standing there, snarling beast-eyed

and in a state of quickening.

Suspensed by imagination,

frozen & forever in the endlessness of one instant,

just like Achilles, never catching a tortoise in

a race that took place only in Xeno’s mindseye.

That it hurts–

I did not know of my own suffering until I saw it on the page before me which I, myself, had written.

Forward-Foreword-Forewarn

The Final Bogeyman

… Space. (period;).

That Rat Bastard (you know the one)

My musling is a Rat Bastard,

literally the rodent spawn of an out-of-wedlocker, and

figuratively, the asshole confessor priest and frenemy,

anon, anon.

But, Boy, can he dance and

how beautiful he sings!

The Ocean Was There

lnexorable is the Ocean, as is the beating and cut of my heart.

No entreaty can yield Its unyielding.

It & I remain ceaseless in Our relentlessness.

The Ocean makes neither demand upon nor encroachment toward

the shore of my heart

– yet both shoreline and waves never cease their enjoined shifting.

It Was A Wash-Out

Apres deluge comes the Fury,

and not vice versa.

A common misconception: the vice versa above, but not

Apres deluge comes the Fury.

Flood precedes Fury, although,

Fury may flood.

A New Moon

We wear Rapture’s cloak on nights of the new moon;

silver crescent scarcely seen and slender.

Original conjunction of Earth, Moon, man and Sun, was that

causing the first scribe’s swoon.

Dirty South

you, myself, and i

I is my present iteration; and the

You is everyone and nobody.

While myself is, I asked for wings.
