<< Hallucinogenic Quotes >>

Groveling for attention
attribution in detention
misinformation running amok
words as fruits with pebbles to choke

ah quotes, the earliest
hallucinogenic machine,
spewing authority
as if bricks to brains

feeding on gullibility
and hopes no mind
to check veracity with tenacity
of source ‘n’ find

in words by others unfound
sparkly words, wisdom words indeed
for instance referable as Twain’s
—not Twain

as transformers of
shaping perception
solid architecture
tooled to deception

looking solid to a fast passer-by
on a riverboat ‘n’ expanding railroads
as unverified unified authenticity
as data auditing the world

revisionism incorporated
where echoes of utterance
come to die yet stay digitized fresh
thought finds triggers iterated

to twig Twain’s quotes as
—not Twain, be stubborn
denial in vein —not Twain,
capitulated to:

it
a Twain
a train —not Twain
a world quoted sane

that, what
could have been so
—Can, Be So.

<< Hiding in Pla(i)n(e) Sight >>

preserved under
continuous transformation
kept oversight over sight
localized as lice in carpet
space fabric in pure and only gel

“I can’t see it, I’m in it”
is it the ultimate human
paradox, engine, predicament
the child in the pen
the astronaut above paper

invitation to persistence
for practical abstractions
of change and can-do attitudes
we do not only write in our minds
ignoring the flow being in thought

of dynamic information confused
as memorial and ritual acting now
to overlasting monuments
of memory as steel-as-water
for topology vectored for change

I can see you do
yet can’t see myself
we smile and just might
continue the way
an angular momentum
of each being hidden in plane sight

<< 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

—animasuri’24

<< 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

<< Frippery >>

took a spatula to the louvre
scraping surfaces of mastery
as totems and animal fur powers
of art wear off onto human skin

style becomes ornamentation
of furloughed veneer as amputated
as amputated artistic multidimensionality
whence discernment’s funds run dry

subsumed in egos of bloated linearity
impromptus input from birth
now without pain with instant gain
nameless and drowned in other’s labor

cultural artifacts as trinkets
lacking textured layering
have you ever moved your hand
across a painting

touch and be touched
without being thrown
emotionally and
out of the gallery

flattened by pixels
It’s time to poke the fixtures
search skin for pores
identify bumps and scars

that’s where the arts lie

<< Merry Worker Mary >>

She has a thousand words well-weighted
more than present day pictures
generated in the millions

She is countless
more than the mathematical functions
running markets and subprime geopolitics

She gives immeasurably
more than the transnational reported data
ignoring the outlier old lady next door

She serves quietly, not subdued
louder than megaphones and limelight
yet fiercely, fist firm and thread strong

she is unnamed unseen yet in the face
the curtains hiding wizards, she is
the rows of workers outsourced, she seats

She echoes through what you don’t see
The glitches you don’t feel
The hell frozen over behind your screen

She calms the digital tsunami
the dark web kraken
she’s the tired keeper of our online seas

<< 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
