b130 (1.24-2.2026): dor-sal eyes

dorsal eyes
by a mayfly
 

"eyes in the back of my head," and a (seeming) one-track mine-d
form fits function when the function functions by design
 
(i think i saw the signs)
___________________
 
·       mayflies (literally) live to mate. forgive humans (if we are an evolution of [uh] 'lesser' species).


(ahem) you can’t spell function without a little bit of fun.

* may (as Well) just fly

* may (as Well) just fly (and breathe and live and love and die). death is but a doorway, a curtain closure, an apocalyptic ending to a wonder-full Play.

flying (or mayflying) is the act of living-life for the tiny (joyous) mo[ve]ment that it Is.  

* i live, i re-learn.

 i live, i re-learn:

  • last weekend (of friday's 3 beers, only the first was fun). 
  • sunday was great, but too much wine (post-date).
  • monday... the IPAs in the fridge called my name. used the national championship game (and the fear of apocalypse game) as an excuse to over-indulge.
honetly? it has taken almost a week to recover. cheat days set you back.
  • regroup. forgive yourself. start again. 
  • prep for rhody, pd-day.
  • don't cheat.
:)

b130 (1.22.1.2026): when the band plays together

when the band plays (together)
by r. e. covery
 
when the band plays together
the rhythm and the rhyme
the harmony (the sin-phony): a bit before its time
____________________

·       is there anything better (really) than a band, playing in harmony?

·       is the Mega-Verse, the Uni-Verse, & the song and/or thoem verse just a vibration of Is energy… singing and dance-sing and play-ing?

For-Give-ing?

when the band plays (together) it is the antithesis of the ego-self, playing a-part, by his-self, in the eternal sandbox?

let’s band.

banding, of course, is the ego-ic experience of two, synchronizing as One.

whoa. One-ness might ‘need’ to play a-part in order to feel the need to band in order the re-Cognize that It All-ways was (and Is) One.

for-give us... as this one might have gotten a tad deeeeep. :)

b132 (3.11-1.2026): i - mayfly

i may fly
by a. mayfly
 
alternative titles:
imago
okay, ima nymph
love bug

note: this thoem will (eventually) land in book 132: who are wIe, as men?
 
i may fly (i know not why) i hope i find a date
hopelessly romantic (i): my purpose (fly & mate)
water-born (with will-to-spawn), i dance (and love) and die
i live for 1 day (i hope i find a way):
 
mayfly
___________________
 
·       as my 1-day existence is survival/thrival, my best option is mayfly-wellness: body, mind & Spirit flourishing:
  o   body: develop, fly, mate. for most of my existence, i’m a nymph.
  o   mind: hope/dream, identify mates, communicate
  o   Spirit: live-on after death via (a) off-springings or (b) nourishment.

·       my whole lifespan is designed to leave a legacy (to replicate) and to facilitate the cycles of life in my Uni-Verse, the catawba river.
 
it’s poetic, really, that my his-story is to Be a fish-story.

b130 (1.21-1.2026): how fast do you bounce back?

how fast you bounce back?
by r. e. covery
 
those who skimmed the surface looked for signs of dis (or lack)
only those with sack could ask: “how fast do you bounce back?”
____________________ 

·       this could be the key question, in love, relationships, fitness/wellness, trauma, grief, challenges, forgiveness opportunities, etc.

·       we are all going to experience the biggest of challenges, in the future.

·       the True question might really be:

“how fast do you bounce back?”

i Played (and took the bow)
this house (at times) seems haunted
how do i feel Now
--------------
not great, really.

okay.

well, at least there's potential.

forgive.

* so what?

 okay... so indiana rewrote the script, conquered the football world, and did it with class. 

and the ego (unforgivingly) says: 

"it's tuesday."

----------------------

:)

tbc.

* forgive me (for this flashback)

forgive me for this flashback: when you don't experience snow, you can miss the snow.

* you can't spell Singularity...

...without 'sing'. 

b130 (1.19-3.2026): wIe Singularity

wIe (Singularity)
by joal leonard martino
 
why predict the future when the present (plain to see)
we’re already in It
Singularity
____________________
 
·       wIe are already In WW3.
·       wIe are already In the Singularity.

go ahead and watch the game (the highlights start at 3)
come (and come full circle)
Singularity
 
when every bite, every click, 
when every sound is an orgasm… 
what is left but "something ain’t right?"
 
it is in y/our coffee-cup; let’s spike that taste-of-tea
smoke it (maybe stroke it)
Singularity
 
(a place for you and me)
(a game-show on tv)
(a "what will be, will be")
(a “let’s just wait and see”)
(a simple user-fee)
(a blame-game called “he/she”)
(a [slight] catastrophe)
(a bend over my knee)
(a shout at referee)
(a crossing of the t)
(a mesmerizing v)
(a “can’t the i be We?”)
(a thoem [from a-to-z])
 
forgive it (don’t for-get it) if you’d like to play for free
it seems we might regret it, Oh!:
Singularity

* it takes a (modern) village...

...to coach the present me.

yes. my guess is that it is going to take the village: 

e-coaches,
student coaches,
me-mories,
prof-icies,
family,
friends,
neighbors,
community,
city/state/nation,
planet,
Uni-Verse,
Mega-Verse,
Inner-Verse...

and then some.

b130 (1.19-1.2026): isa (she likes me)

isa (she likes me)
by joal leonard martino
 
isa has arrived (a truth that i can clearly see)
isa co-Insides, i’m glad that
isa (she likes me)
____________________
 
·       the fact that i am here, experiencing this experience, is proof that i have value to isa… for the time, Be-ing. kind-of like the plants (in my living room).

·       isa will (maybe) water me For-Give me & care for me (so long as i care for myself, and so long as i continue to provide value).

·       the very moment that the living-room plant becomes the least-bit of a burden/benefit negative is the moment that it (a) gets thrown into the trash, or (b) is transformed-into firtile-i-zation for the next plant.

so… what is a plant (like me) to do-Be-do
live. express myself

help other plants to express themselves?
