and though I have no belief in prophecies-convincing utterances-
your assurance is appreciated.
it’s been a long time since my
waking dreams have been
fantastic
wonderful
hopeful
I have so little of that
so, regardless of your intentions,
thanks,
it helped.
Why did those words help?
Or, the real question,
why do your words help?
is it our agreed temporality?
(facades still impress upon us)
is it your conviction?

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
