Title-less

What words come
when waters
whine
and alliteration
composes its self?

Thirst, you dogs.
Enjoy your thirst.

Un-slake-able
tends toward
terrorizing, and
unquenchable
leans
unquestionably.

But time and tide
reigns and rolls
respectively,
so consider
yourself as “having
once already been
warned.”

Collect without
malice the timber
of continence—
it will serve you well—
and gather with
exultation remonstrations
of quality.

A Revelation

To discuss for a moment the ten-fold:

When we find two related somethings, but one
requires ten times the time to accomplish as the other,
what strikes us is of course the precision.

I suppose that with averages
we’re constantly dealing with an imprecise
science;

however, the precision hides
in the ability of the thing to have something
like an

average—measurability
as quality.

For the work I do--
and perhaps the particular work of the moment--
is always divided
into two: reception and creation, and the latter
tends to take ten
times the time as the former.

For something that ought to be obvious at the outset,
you may or may not be surprised to find out that
that little tidbit—that’d been hanging, ripe above
my head—floored me. What a stat.

What could be more precious than it?
What could be more imaginary?
What could be more in my mind?
What could be less?
What could it be used to do?
What could you be if you knew of
its mysteries combined with knowledge
of quality?

Lasciate ogni speranza voi ch'entrate.
There is no reason not to.

Indecisive Meta-commentary

Perhaps the greatest (drive)←change word?
of a human being (human’s being?)
is to put yourself (or one’s self),
all of yourself--and that includes your spirit/soul/eternity—
into some thing (a physical entity of some kind).

That’s what lives on forever.
Whether it be a child you’ve raised
(biologically the easiest and thus, probably,
why it is the most prevalent),
or something you’ve created (a book written, a painting painted,
or a company built),
the unwritten principles of humanity dictate:

Thou shalt make every attempt—do what you can—
to make humanity better—at the universal level—by
making something of lasting value—
discuss amongst your selves (selfs) what value and quality
mean.
