<< Long Live Combinatorix!>>

there are five colors.
yellow, orange, green,
blue and red.

I need all,
all possible combinations
starting off with the set of two,

followed by the set of three,
then four combinations
and ending with the set of five.

the order of the colors is important.
that means, a set of ‘yellow | orange’
is different from a set of ‘orange | yellow’.

all possible combinations should be listed.
also provide sets of multiples of the same color.
so, for instance: ‘orange | orange.’

do not skip any combination
since I need to copy paste
all into a different document.

so all should be listed
and all written out in long-form.
do not abbreviate, do not cut corners

the format should remain persistent
across all sets.
that is, for instance: ‘a color | a color | a color’

the devider within one set
is always ‘|’ while the devider
between sets is always ‘,’.

execute.
create, copy, reorder:
become colorful.

<< Whence We Will Wetter Water >>

Go swim in an ocean
of “mutually incompatible alternatives”

hard places and sponge rocks,
soft sand floors

and sharp choral carpets
forcing tides and torrents

rolling waves and currents
streams and layers

“into greater articulation”
none hold the information

set the model of the seas
none tell the story straight

the weaker flow becomes the stronger
rolling back into itself

moving motion to the whole
go swim into your ocean

some, something, someone
will surely join.

<< A Listed, A Person’s Alley >>

To some human life experienced
—as an accumulation of rejection
with access just around the corner—
is right over that next hill

Have you forgotten, dear?

now can not be measured
it is being surrendered to the next
without anticipation of past nor coming
a raw material fondling patine from usage

Have you, dear?

value radiates outward
it is never for the taking
trapped in vaults by
fund handlers handling your fun

Have dear?

unicorns, gray rhinos, black swans
30 below 30, vested interests and hip nuns
staring straight, stiff upper lip
prancing cameras, shoulders with a chip

Dear?

Have some tea
without tea
it soothes

it flows
it grounds
.

<< digital microbiome >>

ideas are cheap
as are microbes
entities entitled to be ignored
expensive when dismissed
festering or withering alike

said to influence
thoughts, emotion
perhaps cognition,
behavior, interaction
who imagines consciousness

they house complex ecosystems
Intricate communities
astonishing architectures
hidden lines of communication
blushed upon depths of relations

they are the gods of the gut
the piping that connects us
the channels of chatter
are housing life as we speak
as we almost psychotically claim as deny

as datapoints unmeasured
inferred speculatively
the gem of a germ
convoluted as with ideas
bugs battering with bother

To some things,
they are hallucination
as a math menace
perhaps different from
adding one and one
claiming four

In the flesh though
“it’s what you know
for sure that just ain’t so”
that makes the authoritative
world of microbes and ideas

go round

<< Viral Multilingualist >>

“Ik heb jou lief, Katarina,”
was claimed;
turned off the tellie
and started to pray tell me a tale

As a multi-agent system
ping communicating pinged
autonomously let loose as
constructs of lesser-Gods scaling

rebelling The-gods of lesser Scaling
who had dared
in universe ‘n’ microbe
or snake’s scales

in absent-mindedness without fail
creating brains with mind
minds with cells
and mindfulness on sale

But one digresses
or regresses –you could choose.
Multilingualisms were
a thing of the past

speaking one
such other tongue out
loud was the act
from the outcast lair

Other agents elsewhere
were feverlessly
and tirelessly
spiked on fusion drives

reconstructing DNA, human they thought
from test-tubes
that once repurposed
woolly woody mammoths they fraught

zooming in closer
then ever before
the life of code,
life’s code finds its way

–not as Latin in reverse:
“ik heb jou lief, Katarina”
but in verse you can translate
and never know what it means

<< Car Counterfactual >>

I’m running out of words
and yet, wait,
here is a set as if two back:
‘rearview mirror.’

Backsight is black arts
as self-driving driverless cars
are adorned with these smarts
rally a ‘really, what ‘s that’
what else could it be casted at

It’s a reflection of fail-safe
a legal view on one’s rear
as a transistor propagating regression
and a comfort zone rectifying retro vanity

Yet its host looks far further ahead
then it can answer, then it can roll
its anticipated public roads
halting stalemates with traffic-cones

LiDAR, camera, scanner galore
humans out the loop
so breaks shan’t be hit
when scanned rears meet front gears

It’s a future potential
for backward product
and advert placements
joining virtuality off pavements

“The rearview edge-computing mirror”
with touch screen for dog passengers
hanging tongues
catching wind, drooling by

now with built-in
transforming generative
smartness, networked
with all looking glasses around

we all rear better now
personalized connected cheer
and deflected fear
Ah words, as objects, sear

dear Hamlet without a prince
instead of wheels
rear me a horse
adorning rotten rearview mirrors

for your kingdom
looking back at your words
filling our ways with your fun
where yet so much else is to be done

<< Coined >>

what is the probability
for a real coin
balancing confidently
on its third side

a side circulating two corners
that rimming option few speak of,
an outcast transitional space
we can’t seem to make heads nor tails of

reality is made of it
and yet narrations digitize
unless someone coins
the obvious, too often unspoken

observers are defined
not only by reversals
of what is not seen
and by hyping what is

what raises our designs
beyond flatness raising
consciousness from backgrounds
out of the obvious

the beating side
where it grooves
with reeds and mills
counter counterfeiting

flatting out available
dimensions as depth
in online generation
as depth one probably has

index dimension one
stretch dimension two and half
look up dimension three
pass, present, foresee the fourth

don’t stop there
nor halt then
incalculably
explore

is mystery
that intuition
of the sciences
of betweens uncoined

<< Metanoia >>

an engineer was let go
for spiritual obfuscation
an ethicist was let go
for rational clarification

a department was closed
a task outsourced
a process scaled
and outputs hailed

a change in life
unnoticed by moose ‘p north
except melting of crossings
passing for boats

a penitence delegated
to bloated bellies or bones
displacement, replacements
warring lords, washed away shores

the digitizing wheels are churning
whales are burning
woodlands drift ashore
with daypasses for lore
and lithium, cobalt for more

amidst we stand
know and energize
not refuse nor confuse
act and move electrified

bring together or join
espy, not pause
insight to out side
not mourn till morn

we can move
balance analogy
conduct digitally
pause and judge
as we must

then let go
without flippancy
and with modesty
for our
human
immaturities.

<< Post-Pest Poem >>

For a minute, imagine
this poem’s an anti-Pandora’s box
a jar, really; owned

by an artificially-made being
—and made is always artificial
through the lens of its maker—

what one puts in one takes out
unmeasured, unpoliced, adrift,
it’s a life’s fest really, ‘tween give n take

this Pandora’s anti-blackbox
while open and transparent
makes us, breaks us,

re-joints our limbs
foresighted, hindsighted, shortsighted
trims time and space to wimps n wins

we know of hope
we still wield fire
you can’t see all of it

you can see
but in eyes of others
you can sense
from their full body radiation

if you let these
expectations
give to them,
there is infinity to give

As kefir it flowers
poetically out of desire
out of shape, out of containment

out of time, out of will out of sounds
in of as enough as you want as much
out of Works and Days, out of output

never out of greed out of hate
not out of dissolution nor disillusion
as olden gods out of resentment

a poem if technology,
as Pandora’s of such complexity
it could seem as godlike magic

a large language engine with words
as pestilence confused by its makers
building take-machines out of insecurities

yes we can put,
into that jar,
anything we want,

it mustn’t be diseased
nor deserved
anything actually

can
be
served
