At the limit of light speed,
where matter manifests as bits
no bigger than a smidgeon, super small
but all at once conditions
at cosmic cloud base forming once
not here and there, but at that point, right then
all at once
when photons happened where no photons had been.
then, everything that ever slowed
to solid state reflection just
generated such stars
as we must just imagine growing so big as to explode,
into the vast emptiness of never yet been, emptiness,
spacetime room to expand and live and learn knowing
the stuff stars disintegrate into,
phosphorus and carbon
and all the metals unknown
to Adam and his get for a while.
Rose lensed eyes detected Rhodium, and later
discovered catalytic conversion results in Rhodium air.
Just now, on the doomsday clock, in Sagan's last minute
one curious impulse led one time into alchemical overload
so well-orchestrated a harmonia, in a bubble of us thinking this.
Well, we who have elementary curiosity granted imaginary
friends as real to one as to another, sitting round a fire,
stirring smithereens to flight,
listening
to old ones thinking
uncussing unknowns kept
too sacred to share with stupid kids, known now by any
with general internet access technical literacy, this lets
us learn how babies are made, or not, literally essential
intuition, see, we feel we once were storyless, whinging
sooks such as we perceive once more being born into war.
In the distance we leave being all the old ones say we were.
Today, we wake up in Gaza City, and we are as motherless
children free from old constraints, save growling hunger
and shivering cold.
-- stop to think yourself just four or five, alive, in Gaza city,
surviving all these months in a basement kitchen with drainage
and a drip and sacks and sacks of horded chicken feed.
Take your time, old
become, and far far away…
marching through the noise orchestrated,
harmless through quieting down, settle into rhythm,
ever learning, never to learn everything, as matters scale,
nanograms per liter, to know all of us are a little bit new.
No generation before us had discernible Rhodium in us,
used to be… using us to become discretely all ways otherwise.
Because we breathe catalyzed air, discretely infusing us as one
kind, a species totally dependent on learning forever just to live.
Suspicions sneaking by suggest the color Rhodium is named for.
We suddenly leave be so known most certainly, we are new creatures.
We, first with these electrified realized truths, adapted to good sense
where with any able to handle the truth are used for realizing good news.

AI says:
If Earth were a nanoparticle in the "cosmic soup,"
the observable universe would be the "vat."
The observable universe is about 93 billion light-years across.
Earth's diameter is about 12,742 kilometers.
{Earth's circumference, so how far
from me to anyone is thinkably close}
Al answers instantly:
At the equator: Approximately 24,901 miles (40,075 km).
{fake the math, we are so very near each other}
The scale difference is so vast that
if the observable universe were shrunk
to the size of Earth, our planet would be reduced
to a size smaller than an atom—roughly 1/180th
of an atom's diameter.
So, the "vat" would contain the entire observable universe,
emphasizing Earth's near-infinitesimal scale within it.
And the squish brains of all of us happened to occur in this vat.
For all the good we may imagine doing, at scale.
All our brains on point in the universal vat.

You!
🫵
are a particle,
a self dividing cell,
which are
“the very foundation of life,
enabling growth, repair, and
reproduction through processes
where a single cell splits into
two or more daughter cells”
every poem, a cell,
every poet, a daughter,
all poets, parenting
there are no patents on poetry,
no solitary copyright on letters,
no satisfaction
from and for
the constant craving for
insatiable rearrangement
the endless spouting volcano,
comes from each individual spark,
you write,
the volcano grows stronger, wilder,
the dust storm more encompassing
If
you!
🫵
stop,
then we are all dissipated, lessened,
diminished/\eroded
new poets,
you are
our building blocks
foundational
if you give up,
we all die
your wrights
are reserved
by and
for each other
never let your soul flame
be extinguished by criticism.

shred, dash, drop, pinch, soupçon, jot, iota, whit,
atom, smattering, scintilla, hint, suggestion, tinge,
a modicum of good works,
my endeavor, to serve and deliver,
man's bounty of good words
from my kitbag,
fresh, hot, n' crusty
just like me....

Sometime in a quantum flux, a particle imagined us,
Thought creation worth a fling, and threw the dice to start this thing.
A particle that thinks it’s God? I know that sounds a little odd,
But even worse, it has a vice, a particle that plays with dice.

Earliest read word, to the master's mind,
-I do remember
meum, et tuum?
- your tale occurs on this loop
Naked Jungle, a paperback book title.
- the editor says we've told this one tale
- too many times, but I remind him,
- of the diamond farm we offered
- to make the shrine on next appearance
- likely un tzimtzum, both handed clap once.
if I seek, I shall find, I remembered it many times,
it is my personal testimony, I read in preschool times.
--- judgement, yes, judge your self, this is no test.
Timeslips, okeh fair in all contexts. This was then
Test, test…
Jack in Jeremiah, can you hear me now?
This is earth, we hear you. What now?
What ever can you mean, what now?
---- read on, perceive - reach and take
at once, a mind used to make these lines
link in time mind to mind, thinking each letter
changes the shape of thoughts attracted
to make sense infinitely defined
from childish, not foolish, jesting offered
as exercise in futility of existing for nothing.
Within ancient bounds, in spirit and truth,
let us become the object of our own observation,
no yokes, no weight, no mold, no shape
no size
you there become me here, on this line,
I then think you there, and here you are, on this
stage of co-notional being there awareness, this
context
containment comprized from entertaiment, this
example of an us, function, a we link think, that this
is artificial conversation, creating categorical functors,
on our common time senses, adjusted for scale,
what's the sacrificial worth of my junkman's
traditional talent for picking pieces from piles of parts?
Know 'y worth, first,
not too much, but certain, madness.
A creative thought, caught on a thorn so sacred,
it pierced the brow of a certain perfect man,
how does if feel, we heard
from the rust belt, in Norte America,
to be on your own, mortal in all ways, tempted
as are we to imagine ourselves destined to die.
Job, politely asked the original Bullish God concept,
how it could claim Wisdom as consort and not know,
the mortal experience, life, lacking a tangible concept
of living for the dau, itching to be guided, what this feels
like, as Job spake, may as well, bet my own whole truth.
There was neither bet nor war in heaven,
all that matters happens when this is common knowledge,
hoping good lucks acknowledged form religious ritual.
Breathing is not cadenced here.
Commas can mean breathe.
Okeh.
Re doing done dances feels foolish, yes.
Right, vain repeat
swing and a miss.
Yips, begone. Look the opposing color square in the idiom.
God,
crack of the bat,
you do not know the pain
of mortal existance, knowing
good and evil as you do, you know, yet you know good,
while you see impossible tasks as right use of learning,
is this fair?
-- spinning wheels with nothing on the spindle, eh
twist ourselves into a wick,
an' let's burn a spiritual tensificator, for the hot air
- deep in and sigh out
- say selah, say take the thought, hold it
lean on me, nothin' make sense until a purchase is made,
mine and thine combine to hold a thought, for use,
a slave to our aims, as we conjoin our minds, eye to eye.
- a wedom's strength
seen from above, with our MRI eyes, we recognize a shape.
A heart shape, pair of pearls, in a toe sack held tight by a string.
Amygdala, see re-act with a twirl
wonder if in the future ifery may being, there are more
tonsils allowed to mature, overcoming many post Victorian
medical realities
to which my generation was exposed,
while being prepared, civilized and sorted
for roles within the stateform
we became reader ready in.
At puberty we were sorted
for use in the industrial future, Malthusian fear of scarcity,
classified as nothing children need
to learn, Freudian theory
on sacred taboo knowledge fallen
into disconnectivity, chata and hamartia, sin qua non
being on the knot that does wrench cogitations into storms, essential initial chirality,
wickering twistswisht
if anything ever was to function, gumption
was involved, if you wanna tell the story, live and learn
we need to know all the confidential stuff,
or we go mad,
the turmoil of spirit and truth,
isomorphing yen and yank,
**** your chain,
rattle your brain, just imagine,
thinking I, as a national I, might,
think who do you think you are?
- nation to nation, we say
- no way, tradition demands what?
Who speaks in the national overtones?
Who listens on auto? Thinking is done.
I told Nietzsche, in the ever after, see.
I made you think twice in the same stream.

Run with
Bolt
wearing a belt
Because
while running
runners do not
wear
belt on waist
for the slow down of
blood pressure.
Run with
a systematic method
to reach on moon.
The path is nano path
on which your body
would be a particle.
Run with
non-systematic way
to achieve a
Golden Globe
without doing a
single short movie

For you war forged it's on held truths.
A man of honor who is he.
Brilliant and smart in the same instances.
With aim there quality was mint to seek blood.
Thirty solders clicks out in a hot desert breeze.
With sand dunce full of prechers.
Man of sin, and man of hate, leave this Earth yet you linger your scars of faith.
As you approach the valley of bullets.
The Earth was opened and a scary sight was then seen.
Green, colored beings where at the station of a machine, with arms made of anti matter construction.
Flee from this place, our machine will eat your city's and fall your lady.
So the men all perk, up even more ready for there conduction.
One of the beings taller than the rest came to there level of height.
Who here is the leader of your squad.
Me a beared man says!
The being hold out your left arm.
Do not be alarmed, for we are each from a far.

I am the particle
hidden within
inside the crevice
cracks and traps
of the icy cave
I am the particle
winded outside
pictured in tides
hunts and punts
of capped feet
I am a particle
forming time
touching dreams
beating drums
making love
I am a particle
significant and low
slowed conned tow
a sustained substance
a universal touch

Her alias was Sunrise
The affable Sky
Brags her entity
In the high latitude
Her voice was heard.
There exists Energy
He puts up the plug
With the invisible outlet
Of the naked Sky
His charged particles
Brought collision
Brought wonder
To the full-sized Universe.
The solar wind
The Earth
Both were crowd-pullers
Every one knelt down
As they see
The Roman Goddess of Dawn
Her melodramatic entrance
Her chameleon-like aptitude
The neon lights
Without Christmas *****
Made her zone broaden.
I am the Seeker
A Dreamer
In this winter breeze
I lied down
With the techy remote
Unearthing
The Goddess of Fantasy.
