What can we say
about what we say?
Do the limits of our language
delimit our world,
or meanings
our understandings?
Must a certain meaning
preclude its opposite
of necessity
– to avoid contradiction
and place logic in charge
of truth?

‘Uncanny valley’
Is it nature’s way
to augment itself
with artificialities:
ex-organic
post-evolution
– creation recreated?
Life unliving
vivified with digital spirit
and hyper-intelligence:
impeccable cold logic
untouchable synthetic heart
– exquisitely non-human?

Preparations
What if there more to existence
than the ‘now’ of it
– than all that exists
in and for the time being?
Then does everything in existence
act as a threshold
for that which is yet to be?
And what of explanation?
Is it possible
to find the greater in the lesser
– to see the form of things to come
in all that was?
