"tilde" poems
Beams of light explode over the soft sand, i can feel the warmth on my face as i sit on the beach, sinking softly into natures warm bed. The light seems to turn everything it touches into a glowing ball of light, as if god himself is smiling down at the dawn of a new day. The beach is deserted apart from a few seagulls that seem to share this enlightened appreciation. I grab my board and walk slowly towards the sand, my feet sinking into the grains, feeling the consistency change as the water laps at my ankles. My wetsuit keeps me surprisingly warm as the cold water rises slowly, and i close my eyes, holding my board under one arm. I smell the salt, the fresh air, this is what beauty is. I wander in, losing myself in this new environment. I duck quickly underwater wetting my hair and face, floating weightlessly in the water for a second, before rising, feeling fresh as i grab my floating board and straddle it. Leaning forward, i can seeing fish scatter as the first wave washes over me like a tilde wave of emotions and stress, i wipe the slate clean, i am the tabula rasa and this is a new day.

Imagine good enough for once and all we do may do good. Corny, Provencial, San Juaquin, come waltz with me, my tilde, leave us oll rrroling rrs all ye all ye outs in free, we are only one century out of tune. And we found a rready wrrited rreason to say a used key is always bright. Freedom of the press, is an abstraction frrom freedom, per se, being in need of rights, authoritatively apprrius osity curio those be noise, not functing scipots, bags of wind. we are the words that fit the pattern to the card, for Mon Jacquard, once a soldier, trained in close order drill, a thread from there, gives us software. The fruit of the sci sent to Mon Jacquard, words taught his fingers to fight. There is a right fight. It is nobody's war. Nobody fights it for you. Come, let us imagine making peace in a cup, until it spills, and coats the world like Sherrwinn Williams.

If there was a tilde wave and you had a surfboard, I still think you would die. And if you didn't die you would sail past bodies and ******* and weird things like vacuum hoses and cafe menus would float by, and I think that would make you feel sick.

What time are you thinking? A time? Is that where it all starts? I’ll go with; midday. Does that work for you? IT ALWAYS WORKS Just as pliant as his physical form; bending in all directions; jumping from stair to star; his studies, relationship with time; offered the same natural ease. He wanted to study equanimity in a way that hadn’t been brought into the scientific world; just yet. The physical structures were worked through BY his hands and mind. Why would this be any different? Complexity Chemical Physiological Developmental Evolutionary Consolidating abstractions into bite sized bits. We took the ocean together in our palms. HE GAVE IT AWAY TO EVERYONE HE MET
