let me see
say speak word wise
to the tune of what i want to hear
listen first and second
read between the lines
but also read the lines
here the abstract counteracts the facts
now you know less
messing sense from truth
squeezing out the juice
the loose tooth wiggle with an overactive tongue
hung under a sign giving no sign
no semblance of the concrete
discrete and tangible
so easily unmanageable
when in the course of human events
and other tides to turn
other accuracy to burn
bridges and empires collapsing in abstraction
seeking traction in the details
flailing and failing
turning a deaf eye
waiting for the rescue of colors of numbers
hungering for texture for a mixture of truths
cocktail of neverfail flavors
clouds waver, sky bleeds on

side note
While this blog's original purpose was to keep myself honest in my practice of doing daily justwrites-- 10-minute freewrites from some unusual starting points-- it has meandered to occasionally include other sorts of writing, to address other goals, and to even include other authors. Now, its main function is as a sort of verbal/ thought outcropping in public view. These are not polished pieces, and most are completely rough drafts. As some pieces may be developed through revision, your comments are most appreciated.
