Synthesis
another page with words on it. another extraction from , spilling free. ashes from ritual to the dexter , projections of intimacy to the sinister. this space does not allow anything and yet is open to everything. a lightning strike s l o w e d to the length of a l i f e t i m e , happening behind your eyes. the circuit is already complete. but not fate , not determined , not catenary. don't you remember ? you already let go.

reticulate
I can feel my drive alive and kicking, I have done enough collapsing and sinking, and now I have no more time for you, no time to soak in the blues, Head up high, I won't be overthinking. You pout because you know I'm not a fragile thing, I walk away, your words and looks lose their sting, I know this isn't what you're used to, and my self belief is new for you, Less talk, more walk, Now I'm the one creating distance. I'm on a different track, and my body holds a poet and she's biting back. One thing's for sure; I let you walk out that door because I have grown to thrive more on my own, And your superficiality has caused your social fatality, And now you know I don't beg anymore, I don't hesitate anymore, I've reclaimed my throne, extracted you from my bones.

Extraction
i am an empty vessel in a world revolving around extraction if i am valued against what i can give the world, then i am of no value. nothing can be reaped from me; for nothing has been sowed.

empty.
Pre *City noise drowned by my ears. Rays of sunlight passed through leaves. As cool breeze blew my hair, I realize, I really wasn't there.* Peri *Inoculation started with titanium tips; I looked elsewhere and thought real deep. Anesthesia sunk down in my cheeks. My face feel numb with swollen lips. I think my mind wandered far enough, Little me saying "Hey, I'm tough." But my tongue tasted blood and rust. But hey, I still do give my trust.* Post *Continuously, he said, "I'm sorry. I'm sorry." While bringing it back, after taking the ivory. The familiar scent of isopropyl filled the air. He gave me a specimen of the ivory that I once took care.*

Ivory of Wisdom
Give me your mind and talk to me let us talk my talk let us walk my walk Beware because I am not a gold miner or even a coal miner but a mind miner, extracting your self-product lying deep within your deep and dark hidden caverns I will dig out your most hidden psyche I will dig out your most deep inner world by my grinding words Your inner product will be on a talking conveyer belt, washed polished and dried to perfection I will then reinvent your freshly dug up social product and inspect for flaws If all passes my inspection, that reflects myself, the stamp will declare, approved by the Good Mind Keepers of "Herd Mentality".
