For Traveler: “We write the words, You fill in the spaces”

by nat-lipstadt

12:53am,  January 3,2025 New York City <> *A Traveler notates these words to my attention, but only because I make myself a convenient target, for truthfully, it is addressed to one and all, to the royalty of:* We, *who speake out loud, to all those who tramp these damp woods full of wet words, that spring up overnight, ripe for the plucking, there for the taking, an exacting where & when they did not even exist the twenty four prior* These purloined overnight creatures are white and  black *lettered truffles, like the pages on which we inscribe, the letters raw, exquisitely tasty, shaved, measured in grams, but only when shared with others, in the privacy of our open minds, after being spooned from within us with exquisite care upon the pages that decorate our lives, sprinkled with great care and cunning*… *but when consumed, our five senses rage with aromatic pleasured pain, for these letters, so tiny, so powerful, grow only when combinatory, individual bitty granules, but when leavened, they enhance, provoke!, they sauce, the* flavors  of the ordinary *of our experiences, creating the extraordinary when interacting upon our five robust senses* *for without the spaces of delineation, our jumbled words are but the random jingle jangle of the sounds of night winds, rustling a tune pleasant but incomprehensible* *Here I take your leave, with the liberty taken for speaking in all our names to a Traveler who so succinctly captures our work, the glue of our interactive Us, Our,* Collective of Individuality
