via syllables to define punctuation / punctuation per se

by @removed.polaroid-scrabble

i see it like this: i know the teenagers have the outlet we never had, we had to invent the graffiti tag to be seen or heard, there's no courage in internet anonymity - we're as successful as insects to adapt, with 8 billion of us, i won't be knocking of your door. i see every poem that i write as a character, even the cameos (great cinema in edinburgh is called cameo - european films, turkish, iranian, real art-house), and with each poem it's like a passer-by on the street, the street is the narrator; i just wanted an oblivious narrator, not some genius chess player moving in & out of people's minds, i wanted to use poetry to destroy if not simply obliterate the voodoo complex of novel & novella architects... seeing through silent "dialectics" / ~dialectics psychiatrists attacking poets and philosophers defending them: like this theory i had - about how god didn't destroy the latin alphabet like he did of babylon (new age atheism is great, but these atheists started congregating, and that's not cool) - and i see punctuation marks above the letters, umlaut for a colon, comma marks above o and n if not elsewhere... but by god i mean god = word(s) - a means of communication - extended into a reality when so complex it's near solipsism, impossible given that you can understand me; better stick to the poetic maxim of paul valery: poems are never finished - just abandoned.
