Suppose you and I are the same.
Then you multiply me the same way I multiply myself
What if I then take the way you multiply yourself?
You and me multiplies with you without me the same way you multiply with me without you.
Ok, just divide you without me.
What is left?
You and I are the same as just you.
You are the same as two of me
As you become nothing

Blast from the Past:

Persuasive rebuke
A studied provocation
Influence lingered

There on the front line
In between the heartless system
And the humans it hurts

Blast from the Past:

Why do we let our
Human lives be confined by
Our inhuman worlds?

02/13/26 A New Haiku for a New Day

Our heart builds callouses
So that we can seem to keep going
As the world just takes and takes

Blast from the Past:

Layer by layer
Learning what led to our world
A bottomless well

Each time we breathe in
It is a gift that grounds us
Back into the earth

Blast from the Past:

It’s strange how easy
It is to lose our ground for
Everything we have

Our memories form
Like molten iron smelted
In our hearts bright fires.

Blast from the Past:

Convulsing I sit
Expecting it again, in
Memory of shame

We evolve based on
Our cycles, no sooner, no later
Than our own time

Blast from the Past:

Sometimes the things we
Need most are not the things we
Think we need at all…
