2.5089 : 4/9/19 : Anachronism

The anachronism of

both punk

and cyber

even for I

the sci fi cup

imbiber

the usual

fetish

with a coat of grot

guess it's just

a jug

and you and

I, robot

what

2.5088 : 4/8/19 : Rough Start

Rough start

for the reinsertion

what to blame

no point to

cast aspersion

Plenty of reasons

to go around

but it's just not the

season

to go aground

what

2.5087 : 4/7/19 : Role Model

Writing off this search

for a role model

get smart about this

wicked world like Aristotle

Ignorance is in

full flower

no obstruction to

dark power

time to call again

the black angel's name

the only one that every time

I called, came

no more mister nice guy

oh my innocent babes

and the consequence will blow

you mind like honest Abe's

what

2.5086 : 4/6/19 : Back Home Delight

How to buy off

the night

got back home:

delight

cause for

heavy thanks

always the best part

not quite the

launch I need

but a good start

what

the once and future realm of thinking

I'm sure it's happened before but in this last song, Decamp, I am for the first time noting an instance where the song I'm posting was (when it was written in 2019) clearly referencing what I was posting on the blog (songs from 2012) at the time I wrote it. Or what I was about to be posting, the noted "trip fantastic" being the series Mt. Metaphor, which commenced with an unannounced prologue (song 2.2531, written 4/7/2012, posted 4/7/2019, and ran (in its formal numbered series) in songs 2532 to 2589, written April 8th to June 4th, 2012, and posted in its turn seven years later. I'd tell you to go check it out except nobody actually reads this.

2.5085 : 4/5/19 : Decamp

Decamp

from the onetime

realm of thinking

think about

the long depression

clear as anything

look to the

halfway home

on the cusp

of a trip fantastic

in some whole

other tome

what

2.5084 : 4/4/19 : Could Have Been Worse

Unrelated to

the present affair

postmodern

fairytale

takes me there

could have gone down

that rabbit hole

not hard to estimate

the trajectory

of that toll

Could have been worse

a case for thanks

not quite a platform

but maybe

a case of planks

what

2.5083 : 4/3/19 : Transformation 5

Sole tool quiet

inaction

evolution

settlement

clarity

without transaction

transformation

five, twelve

seventeen thousand times

toss out new lives

like nickles

and dimes

what

2.5082 : 4/2/19 : Limbs

Is thius

seizing of the limbs

a metaphor?

mute psyche

on attack

and nothing more

wrong side of

the brain

should be articulate

look for the

bright side

but I'm sick of that

what

2.5081 : 4/1/19 : Husk

This mere husk

fruit

or root

nowhere to

be seen

the stupid

same

lantern play

behind the

screen

thinking

another dismal sleep

thinking I'm

a dumb dumb

sheep

what

2.5080 : 3/31/19 : SPOT

Wish it were

there

but it's

not

no interest

leave

nothing

in the spot

what

2.5079 : 3/30/19 : Action Item 16

Necessary brief

action item 16

dictates like Tao

to exit the scene

To make another

at a page's turn

at this rate

I might even learn

what
