Speaking Over Time
-What could be new with Your Weirdness? You shifted shapes and even sex.
-Childsplay.
-Oh? The rest of us left gasping in the dust!
-Easy not to be. You’re from here as
am I. Our starting and finishing point.
-But I feel like Buck Rogers and the
Temple of Doom!
-Yes. I can sense that groaning and mechanical sepia-ness. Amusing light.
-I’ll settle for doing just one of the miraculous things you’ve done!
-Why bother? Already suffocatingly
old hat
-Indulge me! Or I’m left with nothing!
-”Nothing” has already decided that.
-That final? You’re drawing a long bow!
-There’s only one. Like me...you’re
from here.
-So?
-You can no longer be from here. All life
and its language comes from that original fact. Straitjacket!
-Can’t be changed!
-Must! Meet me tomorrow. I’ll show you new chains of vowels.
-Uh huh? The brand new life hatched from language?
-It has been anxiously sounding itself as we sound here
-And it will fail as I will fail again!
-Not this time!

The Circle
Thinking too weirdly
brought the request
to cease. Easy enough
to just pretend to.
It eased, then
asked to help
with those
who stray. But
who am I
to shift others
to my shape? It
all worked out
though. That is
until everything
unrecognizable,
and everyone.
Can it go on
this new way?
What?
ask they.

Dynamic Dialog
-So everything I learned is wrong! My beliefs a shit pile!
-That’s about it.
-And that leaves what to do?
-Nothing. Or reinvent yourself.
-Been a long life, and jammed full of reinventing as it is.
-Yeah, the new remains the enemy of the old.
-Same old shit, I’d say.
-That view marginalizes. Let’s them label you the old fogy.
-That’s okay so long as I can have brews with other
condemned, go back of the ballfield when everything has
shut down for the night, and laugh our ass off pissing!
