Seeing from this longest day

by kenpepiton

Dammed good facts, today is a surely measurable day. Set in the common course of human events from the bottom, where the world at this altitude, is wintering, while from the top we feel the sun, straight on hot as Mohave at solstice, such as I, as we, seeing we live in order to live in order to help eh, hey, hear us near us say, we know weyekin, ye ken, visionary wisdom wedom poet singer sayer pre-sent, and representing words living in timespace at time's own pace, passing Dark cold winter, time for inwalled-usness use, we become the whole room, sometimes, all eyes on I, the one, in the middle - there - being the connection, anhamartia-tic, coherence here and there, a web conforms to koinonical image entonations, owls of common sorts, and squeeking black lizards, settle in the shade, to night we go, onward, to mark the time, watching all the old knowing proven, as the sun rises and sets, facts as measures confirm, solid-ifity convey, say so it is, con-fide-used knowing, faith, as we say. We are the people who know this mystery, we live in life, as bits of all that ever was, by now, all that is weighted significant from first landmarks set in times past. some, not my we, some see life as a struggle, see from a salmon's POV, the sense of efforting is joy,- efforting rejoicing + this is right, this is how I form the people, offsprung from war wage slaves, who kill us, to hide the stars at night. Humans in the future shall love water flowing functionality, and starry story tellings un seen in cities since the great white way attracted the sharks into the tank.

Notes

Remove not the old landmarks,

find the way where good is, and walk therein, to when

you get there you know it for all it was.
