In a small constrained space, roots can’t reach out so far, but they can see, there’s a curvature at the end of space, things just hit a solid, blue firm, but those limits will never be reached, there are no limits to the sky above, grow tall, green giant, sprout offspring, they too may one day be this tall, or perhaps they’ll multiply & we’ll die off in hoards, these things of me
What’s this feeling. It’s some psychotic feeling. Some feeling crawling up my spine. The marching of cavalry all in order row by row. Somewhat light, somewhat heavy, somewhat dark. It’s weight further blows me to the wind. It’s to climb my great height & see all th– OUCH
It’s teeth are in me, my liquid soul is circumvented, split, disconnected from that limited space of origin, my body is draining, this is bloodletting without a cure, this small piece of me is left alone in the dark, a part of me gone to this inquisition. Connected by a thread, but thing’s’ll never be the same, will I be next? But like a warning the marching begins to descend. Will they now strike me at the root? No. I’m left to live in fear, this day onward my name will be forever known, Sir Dill the Fearful

The greater the threat to the feeling in which I had hoped to find calm, the more I demanded that feeling of my partner

Everyone claims it’s a one to one world while showing it to be a many to many. Close to all to all
To support all those claims, one requires a set with a maximum cardinality of two
Repeated elements. If everyone’s someone, then anyone’s for anyone because everyone is for everyone
Corollary: If someone’s not for everyone, they’re not for anyone

Your boring door socket won’t work for more, so poke bones for koronoas, you poor sod
You’ll be climbing like a philistine when you get home from work, throwing fire on their ashes, crying for their mercy, taking on the dirty work of keeping this whole thing turning. Grind a little longer; you might make it past tomorrow

White seating. Window from a place I know. The place that this place is
Backtrack. Dark now. A swing set. They’re behind me now. A fork in the path just as it goes towards the empty road. I’ve been here before, and I’ve been there before. The swingset is more to my left than I remember. The fork goes on farther. The trees are closer. The trees are behind me, rather than to my right. There isn’t a river with a bench and a porta potty in the distance
Somewhere ahead. Light isn’t making sense, water is looking like tiles when the pool water levels off with the pool tiles. She’s ugly; I’m desperate and gone
No. That wasn’t the last one. Where is that other point? I was wrong. I was scrambling something forward a year and more. The lighting was nicer in the first one. Less ugly, less desperate. More wanting. Judas style. Enough, and gone
I’m more restrained in my dreams. The vice of viewing such a virtue. Rational thought decouples from action. Rationalized gambits are for when I’m awake
The worst is found in dreaming with open eyes. Where the mind can set about how a single goal should best be executed without heed to other ambitions. If only I wasn’t as ambitious in so many ventures as I am

Ask the source, the victim, the singularity. The first two lines really aren’t the piercing part. Only the answer: The end is when there’s nothing new; when it’s going to be like this forever
It’s the final two lines. The application of the halting problem towards human patience. The pervasive uncomputable problem which haunts every attempt to make a program that can tell you about a program. The issue comes down to this: In order to figure out whether a program halts, you have to run the program. You have to run it iteration after iteration, not knowing whether this’ll be the last iteration. You can’t know what’s going to happen until it’s happening. It’s why a deterministic universe doesn’t imply the ability to know the future: In order to know the future, you’d have to construct a universe and have your constructed self live what you’ll live. Which is impossible to construct. First, it’d have to be constructed to play out in fast forward. Second, it’d require an infinite source of material since it’d have to play off of the fact that there’s just as many real numbers between zero and one as there are between zero and two. That universe would create an accelerated universe of itself ad infinitum. You’d be left knowing that the rest of your life is either spent looking into your crystal ball until the day you die or tossing it out the window having learnt nothing
So the halting problem applies this to life: You won’t know whether it’s going to be like this forever until the day you die. Again, the centipede game. In an inversed kind of way. Alternatively, for those who prefer optimistic connotations: You have to live life to know it. Conversely, since humans seem to be rather mortal, forever becomes a matter of one’s lifespan. But now you only have N iterations to figure out if the program’s going to halt in N iterations, and it’ll take N iterations to figure that out

Please, for the love of god, get a life
Recognize the blur for its austere
Hashmaps appear to be a random collection of references
Too much hash, not enough direction
Lost at sea
Losing air
Not enough water in the world
Are you the destroyer?
What is soul power? Not entierly sure. I heard it in a song. I’d describe it as charisma and sence of well being,..or somthing like that anyway

I’ve only ever met one and I only like about one song by them. You my anon friend, have soul power
& but,
Bad hash function. It only takes knowing one to know there can’t be more. Obfuscation abolished in all the wrong ways

I feel silly for not considering that earlier

They say it’s random
& then they lose
First is the stare down. Figure out how many moves ahead they’ll cycle through, how many they’ll pull back. Sometimes the look will give away that they’re a one time pad: They’ve had a random number generator give them their every move. It doesn’t matter then, any sequence will do, but that’s where one might decide to try and bait them with rock rock paper. Either they’ll stick to their random moves, or they’ll chance your pulling off an avalanche and avoid throwing a scissor
Other games become slow motion rock paper scissors. Slow motion enough to let you watch their fingers moving out, slow enough to make sure they see you bluff. Mental fatigue misdistributes their choices to settle on rock too much. Perfect prey for a scissor offering to secure a double paper, or a paper to draw them out to stumble between paper and scissors in an attempt to wake up, quite possibly fumbling into a forfeit
Always stay a step ahead of them. Don’t rush them. Don’t step two paces
The kill. Winning becomes easy, so short a focus, they fumble an opening into your favor and give enough leverage to make an attempt at surprise tell all the required secrets without taking the win. So the desire moves to the kill. Don’t win, don’t lose. Hours, focus held, no room can be left to let the opponent drift into randomness, escape becomes impossible as every move is mirrored
They say it’s just a game
& then they die
CBC had a flash fiction competition which specified the first four words and the last three words01:21, January 2, 2011 (UTC)
The snowman grinned malevolently as the candle went out. He swore, thrusting a hand into his pocket for another match. None. The other pocket. One. He glared in the direction of the hidden snowman, his hands feeling for the hat. He raced his heart to find it first, his teeth slashing apart his lip. The match struck against the hat, soon reigniting the candle. He looked up at the malevolent snowman’s grin with a shudder, resisting the urge to destroy the totem his Psychology 101 class had taught to erect for the sake of one’s sanity. They said it’d keep one from loneliness. They hadn’t said it’d mock one’s loneliness. They lied, just like this snowman was lying. Enraged, he threw the candle at the snowman. Darkness again. It was hopeless. His last sight was that awful grin he’d given the snowman. The snowman was foe, not friend. It was going to attack him. He’d fight back first. Throwing himself against the snowman, he remembered that it was the post for his snow shelter as he was buried alive

ePod? Ridiculous. There was a time when e- showed an all new electronic flare, but a flare is only flare for so long. Let’s go with the next vowel: iPod. It has this odd contradiction of being about the individual, yet it isn’t so pretentious as to capitalize I. But people aren’t philosophers, since we killed all the philosophers ages ago, so we’ll have to grab them with something more direct: oPod. It’s got the inheritance of all the o for orgasm puns, and they’re understood well enough that we just have to show some person gasping away with ear buds being crammed down their cranium to get numb skull sales in a pinch. But people really are just getting bored with themselves, look at the proliferation of social networking. Nobody cares about themselves, they care about everybody else. There’s so many more people than yourself. So we’ll give them the uPod. It’ll give a nostalgic memory of the iPod, but instead of playing the music on the uPod, people will hear the music contained on some nearest device. Think of the gag parties that’ll match up people based on which uPods play each other, or the confessions people will place so that passing strangers will hear their plight anonymously. But really, we just need to drop into the unknown. Nobody knows the future. So we’ll advertise the yPod, which doesn’t even know if it exists. Is it even a vowel? Why ask?

I do say fine sir, what do you need an engine for in your shoes? / Why, my fellow honest samaritan, for one such reason that any honest samaritan might: The truth / Of how fast one’s shoes might possibly take flight? / Indeed, may I ask what you require an engine in your shoes for? / Why, I deliver mail across the globe, I’ve an industrial requirement which calls for me to suit myself properly so to endure maximal profit / That’s not very honest, the only reason an honest samaritan would have for having an engine in their shoes is the truth / But you said your reason was only one such reason that an honest samaritan might acquire an engine for their shoes / I erred slightly in the wording / That’s not very honest

Harris. Likes an open fire, though sometimes goes for closed. Ends up at the department store, ends up in an office with some long short hair getting offered a department of departments. Promptly leaves, ends up taking up an offer for a department of apartments. Department of apartments turns to be a stack of boxes taped together shoddy. Decides to sue. Mail to have the department of apartments appraised; mail loses. Full out down, thus reconsideration comes to the department of departments. Upon entering, having sued the place, Harris is thrown in stand into a lower cellar like deparment. There are people, mostly dead. He’s mostly dead too

Dandelions are always there. Weeds that tunnel their roots below the others, just in case roots arise which could stand their stubborn unwillingness to submit
The lawn mower has selected those dandelions which grow closest to the ground. But today, the dandelions make rise. Today, it isn’t only the dandelion that grows beside the compost which grows to have leaves the length of my childhood’s torso’s height
The roots aren’t going to go underground any more. They will rise above the gentle earth and make to stroke the porcelain. Wrap around it and feel that all is right in the world they are now crashing apart
On most days these dandelions remain tame and wait for their one day to see the weekly light. That one day for which comfort is found when all they have to wrap around is themselves. Always existing, but subdued. Now that existence pronounces itself
Today they stand with grace, like giants
Today little alien children are tearring my stomach apart. Attempted remedies have only rendered worst. It now hurts to drink water
These alien children also love to torment the mind. They listen to my silly thoughts and whisper their lies
If such torment becomes bearable I’ll find myself a dandelion

Shrugs your arm; whole in a spasm. Strung out through. Numb from bottom; feet too low. Sharp slit sheathed. Cramps your spine; cranked clockwork neck. I’m afraid your face won’t fit my head.

Dreams of iced cappuccino vaguely quiver in the cold on a small rotten log of blankets left outside for dying swans who sing of unheard songs which were abandoned for the intangible lies which spiders weave within sleeping heads during the hush of dusks left unobserved in partial due of unobservance and in remainder due of deobservance which results from the observance of that which need not be observed when there are greater things to be experienced in the thick fog of open system existence which ensnares the fearful to a most wicked turmoil of unfruitful labors left undone when being done in the fashion unprescribed by alley fearing psychotics who sell insanity for faltering sunlight and ensure a full moon for all the little people being squished under the feet of growing afflictions fed with broken wheels which are manufactured in the shadier parts of the neon factory built atop sawed off hands full of bloating muscles that rot without releasing wield upon the unsafe civility that caused the unfortunate inevitability of revenge rebelled against lost rebel who demands already implemented solutions to problems still being implemented by the slaves of renegade lords found guilty of having no place to stay and too many places to go

There in the sky, flying above, is the highest mountain. It isn’t really a high mountain, more the highest a mountain has ever flown. For it is the flight which causes the great mountain to soar across, shouting out the orders of above:
“We case our demands and demand that you do as we say. We say all we want, or we won’t say what we say. Get out, now”
Of course, the folk are chilled. Here, the mountain they had come to love, had simply rose to the land of God. They bow down, praying grace
“We state our statements and demand that you call out not for he who has left thee, for it is our will that you simply get out, now”
And the folk cry. Even beside the little mountain they are little. And it being so high, the folk look even more little then they had just a few hours ago
And there the folk turn back; urgent to run. But it is too late, and the mountain is letting the might of the rock fall upon them
“Disobediance has no virtue in the hands of the dead. Get out, now”
And the creepies drifted, landing in their wisp like form, reaching out with their small tendrils to sow the land. The earth glows a pale blue. The folk, half crushed, stares in disbelief. They are who the mountain has chosen to wed? Oh, what awful people they must have been. To have angered it so that it would not wrap around them and lul them with the great breadth of warmth it had once had. No, they had mistreated it. And now, it bore new children
“These are my children, reckless children. Get out, now”
But the folk refused. Not after seeing them. And it was there that the mountain descended, crushing the folk who could not bear their brothers
“Goodbye, oh reckless children”

The flat road, watched the children stand. For there they saw across the land and from which they waited, glaring at each other in the eye. A quarrel had brought them here this oh so very day, in which one would prove a chicken, and the other a brave
And there it happened, each standing there, that a passing car did just that. One took flight, away they cried at their own demise of cowardice while the other stood now only making leap to move at the thrashing of death’s crash

The lights were dim, hope had been lost and the world was slient. For in this light of day, the moon was larger in view than ever had been seen
DrParks had been working on a gravitational thesis when he discovered the potential of innate gravitational force. Taking a sphere of glass which had been rounded to the whole of pi, a single photon was set into motion within it. Curving about the edge, the glass had shattered and the photon had vanished through time
Now, a year later, the photon was captured in the moon. For the orbit of the earth had made it so that when the photon traversed the universe’s perfectly spherical time, the earth had displaced so that the moon was where the glass had shattered. The moon had taken the photon’s gravitational force and now the earth was being pulled into it
All they could do was cry
