Screen Dump 839

Getting the words out, yes? . . .
the joy at the level of the sentence
despite hallucinating chatbots
with you touting your next iteration . . .
long lines followed by short lines
saying the real say
a window into the why . . .
Is it alive? . . .
away from the non-presence
of philosophical yadas . . .
the kinship among the disillusioned
pushing the disembodied space
into something else
energized by nature’s calisthenics . . .
You can do this . . . you know you can do this . . .

Screen Dump 838

So what's a little queasiness? . . .
This is what you wanted, yes? . . .
this staging of the ethics of representation:
who was there? . . . who wasn't? . . .
the magic . . . what sustains it? . . .
what snuffs it out? . . .
The engaging motleyness
emerging from somewhere deeper
than rationality . . .
trying not to be judgmental . . .
the menacing collage
the porosity of stalled time
the bucket list leaking indecipherables
into your playpen of dreams
the rate of polymer degradation
awaiting your inner film preservationist . . .
Implausible . . .
Would you rather something else? . . .
How then pharmaceuticals
in the throes of ecstasy? . . .
Deep discounts? . . . of course . . .
Repercussions bouncing around
the breezeway at all hours . . .
Throat singers trailing scripts, yes! . . .
And now the day . . . with coupons . . .
Can you wait it out? . . .
