Far Out
I realized
again -
that
I didn’t know what day it was.
And
That I don’t much care.
Time
is
not mine.
I write everyday.
I once wrote -
1200 words in 5 minutes.
(By hand.)
Whatever that means.
Sometimes/most times
I stir myself up,
crash into myself,
As though
Invading the underworld,
like the I Ching
spoke of,
long ago.
I think
I bend
so far
& not
break.
It is
far
out.

Dear C,
1200 words in 5 minutes? By hand?! That’s impressive. I might have typed 12 words in 20 minutes on a good day.
I wondered who “ I Ching” was as the honorable mention in your write? H🌷

Well... I had a 1200 word paper due, that I somehow forgot about (the only time that ever happened) and this "thing" notified me that I had "5 minutes until this other thing" and I just went "warp speed" and before the "5 minute thing" was reached, the paper was done. I was like WTF!!! How did that happen...
(it may have been a few minutes beyond 5 minutes, as it was a human doing the "5 minute thing". Whatever it was, someone said I looked like a man possessed, as I looked at them, as though exiting a trance like state. I put it in the piece to contrast or support the idea of "no time", in the context of writing.)
Thank you so much H.
(Your 12 words are very much beyond space and time and have a value beyond value.)

Love your clever usage of emoticons. You are the bestest.
Even a barren wasteland of you is an Eden of indescribable proportions.
Many thanks Blu.
