Self-Concept Commutative Telegrams

In times of rain, in times of dust
In times of all being put together by permutations of singular units
We think carefully of our issues and action plans
We think of each one being empowered to choose
Elements stack and align, each of our peptides has different things to say
In shade of gloaming shadow, the Piskies prepare the tricks for They
While each to the other recounts tales of how rebellion had seemed to them,
But this is early, the moment is not yet come..
In art, wait a few moments, not always striking the first thought down
Eyes follow from the walls & mirrors & trees & birds & paintings
Each to the other chanting
Think to yourself of gems,
The street-cars cross your path with endless bipedalled mysteries
Telegramming one another cues
A self-concept obsesses over past eddies
Yet always able
To burst forth in blooms of riots of the zeitgeist

Please also consider buying my book Synaptic Syntactic which can be read on any device from phones to desktops, available direct, from Amazon, iTunes, and others, and depending on your ebook software, can also be printed out. As well, check out my items on Zazzle and an older Zazzle store. You can also transfer the images to other items on Zazzle and I will still get a royalty. The high numbers of reviews are for everything sold on that product type on Zazzle, not my own items. Also check out my climate change/activism/ocean hypoxia/politics/environment website and GitHub project Easy Em. If you are feeling generous, please like or comment or even send a tip at Buy Me a Coffee. A Patreon and subscriber only content are under consideration but currently far from implementation. Also consider joining or giving for my 2023 project Buy 1,000 Postcard Stamps and Defeat Fascism, for which I need to recreate the detailed GoFundMe due to technical issues and confusion, but that may take until sometime on 12/3. Some older but still somewhat detailed info going back to 2016 is at Poetic Postcards, the Gallery of the Discordian Postcard Conspiracy. And I have a SoundCloud which has art sound and meditation. Also some 2017 spoken word improvisations some of which I maybe should delete, but I haven’t listened to them all yet!

If you arrived here by clicking on an ad, the image for the ad was made by me with DALL-E 2 with the prompt “group of people in a dark field each bursting forth in deep colors – Album Cover”.

On the note of defeating fascism, WordPress ads are cheap and dead simple to set up and you are really doing the blogger and the reader both a favor because a lot of the stuff in the ad block on free-plan blogs is long junky clickbait things farming tertiary ad revenue, so whatever blog post you’re advertising, it is likely of higher value than the time sucking and money soaking tertiary clickbaiters. (negative value). WordPress ads are all moderated by humans before they run, so it IS possible to do, lookin’ at you other platforms. Organic traffic in your WordPress stats may be understated for various technical reasons. When last I checked years ago, if I had the Ghostery browser plugin turned on none of my traffic to my blog registered, even when logged out and at the library, not home. Here is a screenshot of results from my previous ad for We:
