Always-in-already. Situated. Soon-already.
Being-for-itself-already. Not-always-in-already.
Separate, contained-already. Grass saturated. Crumpled-probably-a-pepsi bottle. Feel, see.
Experience-already. Open-time touch-already.
Already-know. Background. Un-already. Loop, static. Seen-already. Know-already. Dense, packed. Be-already. They-already. Other-is-already. I-already.
Ode
Words pour meaninglessly. Arbitrary
and seamless. Filtered yet pervasive.

Sentences erupt but don't hold
significance. Attached yet disembodied.

Speech cascades unwillingly. An alien
speaker. Detached. No metaphor.
to AI
AI echoes rapture, sin follows fall.
Apple divides permanently. Feet
washed masses kneel. Technology
bleeds incessantly. Judas whispers
secretively. Cheek turned, swollen
red and twice-marked. Snake bite.

Phone: Adam's rib. Our monastery.
8 billion serpentine invocations tempt
slyly. Double-footsteps tread
sharply. Sun bright, all-encompassing.
Dagger's thread cuts warming
wind. God's breath. Now dead.

Meek misers collate heaven's earth.
Inherited wealth un-dispersed.
Blessed persecutors revel. 'Number'
signifying the eternal. Apple divides
permanently. Bread now spread
thinly. Hoard expands needle's eye.
Closing. soon-already. breath.
Deep and heavy, soon now-already.
Feeling heavy, droop slow and steady.

Not-already stark open image
Merged spasms, rectangular light.
No-already, tight seeping so-already

Feeling heavy, stretc-hed slow and steady.

Then-already, gaze weak, sight thin:
Feel-already. Be-already. In-already.
Arm ajar-already hand enwrapped-already.

Feeling slow and steady. Beating,
blinking, slow. and. steady.  In-already.
Quick. and. steady.
Vivid abstractions permeate raucously
Fleeting flashing lights blind sight
Screens bend and hold and siphon
Thumbs trace etched designs, falling
Into insta, tap, check, notified, attention split

Vivid abstractions permeate raucausly
Tweeting typing meeting online sometimes-feeling
Always now. Transient. No holding. No keeping.
Fluttering text treads: IMPORTANT MESSAGE

Vivid abstractions permeate raucausly
Impermanence exploding possibility
Enclosure enwrapping wall-building:
Every way to coat fried chicken

Vivid abstractions permeate raucausly
Unfeeling excess behaviour ingrained
Re-created re-imagined re-already
Keep swiping, keep searching, already-already
The death star was almost real? NEW META

Vivid abstractions permeate raucausly
Enveloping all-already towards-which
Overloaded. 😂 Now already. 🕑 Steep in still.
Ironic in the mode of its publication
Which is which?
The collective is composed of the singular
Yet when you take a step back and see
It is more than composed of singular
Rather, singularity is absorbed into the collective
Singularity cannot exist within collective
For it is collective
So be absorbed by it
Only then,
Can you truly see
The singular
What am I?
I wonder
Sitting in front of a screen
A collective of conscious particles?
A singular being, being-for-itself?
I suppose
I am neither
For I am not
For I am
