That time of year when you gotta try to make the low-light bug into a feature

Yippie I am now the poet laureate of a jar of hearts and souls who knows what happens if the pitcher had laughed because he has a surprisingly small head it turns the same way as Sigourney Weaver and then they ate it behind my back so that is why we need a drink or something and David Ortiz is a lot

...parts of words we want for emphasis or aesthetics. But if you think, as my brain still likes to sing, "Manitoba Manitoba jingle bells, hamburger bells, Winnipeg bells", you hear there's at least something in English to work with, which is at work in your poems whether you mean it to be or not

A quarter note is "bells", two eighths are "jingle", four sixteenths are "Manitoba", an eighth and two sixteenths are "hamburger", a triplet is "Winnipeg". It's easy to think that durational metering can't work in English because since meaning doesn't depend on duration we can draw out whatever...

Trump: Drill baby drill!
Canada: Sir yes sir!!

Dunno if it'd be new to you but what that description calls to mind for me is: Annie Dillard, The Living.

See Will Vest! See Will Vest! This 4-seamer's not his best!

And THAT's why you ALWAYS take a SHORT LEAD off third base, EVEN when there's NOBODY ON third base

"Rejection collectin'" was too tasty and timely a phrase not to give a good chew! 😁

Oh that November wind it blows
And the bloom is right off my rose
Baby look at this sorry lit scene
Been so long I ain’t seen no green
Ain’t goin’ outside today
I got enough inside that’s grey
Gonna stay home ’n’ cry to my muse
Got the rejection collectin’ blues

🐄I am now the poet laureate of your face and facial feature detection algorithms to solve the problem with my eventual PhD supervisor which was presumably because it's so hard to argue that Joey Loperfido isn't a more useful player just wanted to let you know we are experiencing milk emergency again

...but it's certainly not the case that the (only) way (for) you to do it is to symbol-manipulate your way through a bunch of logic gates until you reach the conclusion "clamp teeth around rope and back up".

...how it is, you know what to do. How to understand what's happening when you do that is a whole other kettle of fish (which has to do with how entire perceptually conscious bodies work, brains being far from the whole story on that (which might be to say: the "right brain" is your whole body!))...

...("all at once" in the sense of the whole situation, but not instantly--you have to work on seeing it all at once like a squirrel does when it runs all around a thing it wants to get at and sits and stews, runs around, sits and stews, before it finally takes its leap), and when you see...

...powerful "left brains", but it remains the case that what Dreyfus was identifying was how humans do almost all of their (best) thinking, and implicitly how non-human animals do all of theirs. The wolf figures out how to get the bait in exactly the same way you would. You see how it is...
