and sang “Happy Birthday” in the rain,

Premium Member Bucky's Wealth of Information
Universal information,
form emerging from multisystemic diastasis,
is composed of fractal syntax,
primally illustrated by looking at RNA,
then DNA,
binomially re-cognizing bilateral temporal memory
as formative id-entity.

Polynomials are to in-form-ionization
as polycultural outcomes are to universal
organic-unitarian-integral-cooperative
life-systemic
syntax.

Not-Not Polynomial unitarianism,
double-bound nondual integrity,

My Contingency Measure In Case of Gotterdammerung
My contingency measure in case of…götterdämmerung

A scenario unfolds
more abominable among

his wicked weltanschauung
charred effigies futilely hung
against regime of brutality
considerably more unbearable

about courtesy evil monster sprung
shortchanging restless and young.

My big friend has locked me
Inside of his house

And except for that dog
I never face harm

Water, Water
‘Water’ seems a fitting title

Along the country roads 
Still strong they march.

Pieced together rock by stone,
Without the help of mortar

By farmers who ploughed the 
Glacial moraine of New England

In Pieces
In pieces,
A moment of resurrection,
From the empty grave
A cradle 
Where chained in silent reverie
Lies my pride with my past.

An understanding of purpose
Like an oak
Grows older
Sinks deeper into the earth
Becomes one with it
And is...

Vanished Vanity
I sit still as a drop on a calm lotus leaf,
whispers of breeze grant me relief from inner grief;
Crystal-like, mercury-like, puddled, yet, cuddled,
Touching still not-touching; I stay never muddled!
