I am here
Where am I?
Where are you?
(Rhetorical questions
to prompt ineffable responses)
I’m stuck
in my mind
but where is my mind?

Now I am lost
We are all lost
All is lost
Maybe not
Maybe I’m here
Maybe you’re there
Maybe we’ll find each other
Maybe that’s all
Maybe
we
create
truth

as common as carbon is a poetic stream of consciousness.
there are 3 categories of “poems”:
(i) heteroglossic synesthesia (complete poems)
(ii) hobonyms (words with no homes)
(iii) mind jerky (thoughts to chew on)
after reading a poem you have 3 options to “turn the page”
“RANDOM” – takes you to a random poetic expression
#hastags – take you to another random poem with the same theme or motif
#category – takes you to a random poem in the same category
“no one can step in the same river twice, for it’s not the same river and they are not the same person” – possibly Heraclitus
just as no one can step in the same river twice, no one can have the same experience of “as common as carbon” twice
