Time-Bound Alchemists Of The Golden Nothing (Are We There Yet? Yeah, Almost..)

 

would you like to own this bullet point 
this non-fungible token of pressed and compressed parallel air..

purchase segments 
by installment 
comfortably at your own pace
own this precious mental art space..

then..
flaunt on the blockchain marketpace your inflation-proof investment
integrate your good self with the semblance
and here is the grid reference 
initiate..initiate..

this small rectangle here [        ] for you to colonise
represents this parallel air-art installation frozen malleable
and your hypothicated asset
will be presented to you
wrapped in this limited edition ether gift case..

so please handle this piece of architecture with great care
your composition of many zeros
consider a piece of prime land
bi-located in trans-dimensional nothingness cloud-locked
stay amazed
for every micro dot could be yours to own
the entire bullet point contains ever-splitable subdivisions
subdivisions of the bullet point constellation
ever the drop containing the information ocean
never mind what resides within your very essence
never mind sentience..

so much more
so much more valuable than a piece of ordinary unregulated air
this piece of parallel air forged into a bullet point
this will be your status symbol
this piece of air-art will hold long-lasting cultural relevance
perhaps for a little more than a short while
empty ephemera now more than ever never out of style..

parallel air-art as avatar icon
space-saving asset class of zero-dimensional substance
the days of paper-art will soon be over
paper abused and tarnished by destructive earth-hating painters
you and your bullet point will help fight climate change
trees will no longer be genocided for two-dimensional landscape
perhaps unregulated air should also be regulated
why should air be consumed for free
why should air be consumed for free
now what a market that would be..

to certify authenticity and ownership
each bullet point will have its own unique identifier
use proudly as your sigil as your banner
no need to be ironic
upload to your art-wallet
please note the expiry date
on request we can send you the fine print..

also coming soon
own your allotted central bank digital currency
you will hold the keys to your allowance
for as long as every facet of your good self remains super-aligned
only then your given parallel airy currency hypothecated
will not be erased or reconsigned
otherwise all will be fine
all will be fine..

and to help combat fraud
we will monitor every purchase you make
you will agree that cash must be criminalised
and all your habits and communications notarised
for you have nothing to hide
you have nothing to hide..

and to further encourage cbdc-uptake
you will be rewarded
with a cbdc-positive tick-mark
we have selected you as a lead-pioneer
you will be gifted ten-million benign bot-followers
these hypothecated humans monetise
as they like subscribe and share and sign-up the npcs..

and to further imbed and imbue a sense of cbdc-belonging
active smart citizens will be uplifted with higher scores
and as you are appointed a primary influencer
an enlightened and enlightening emissary
a flashing magnetising nodal point tantaliser
you will enjoy a more flexible spend-time allowance
and you will be able to fire some people
and if you feel an ache or emptiness inside
these are only teething pains and they should soon subside..

so do not wish away your privileges
you should twice-daily monitor your citizen credit score
remember tomorrow will not be like the bad old days of cash
where transactions like highwaymen wore masks..

to spend your cbdc 
you will only need to flash the reader your iris
as was uncannily predicted in old science fiction films
your iris is ours
your iris is ours neural-lattice-trademarked and protected..

so stay tuned
for very soon your cbdc will charge to the rescue
to defeat the fiercest crises predicted by boomeranging nostradamuses..

we have the injectables
a technology hacked blackout
more scarcity more blockades more broken supply chains
and a war the war
triggering an unfortunate and utterly unpredictable series of events..

here shall breathe dragons of monumentous epoch-changing circumstance
demanding imaginative and daring solutions
for immediate implementation
the debate can happen later..

never worry for we are on it
can you not already see our handiwork around you
the engineered divisions the misdirections
the soul-destroying self-identifications
the medications
the neurosis
the intention..

another upside
a currency crash will save our world
and our banks
and cbdc will usher in a new earth
all our players are locked-and-loaded
so all that you see playing out before you now
merely the theatre generating all the reasons
to offer you our selfless gifts to be deemed essential..

a wink
always a wink
your signature
and here is your expiry
this can be revised and changed by us at any time..

from now think of yourself as a precious piece of biometric data
lashed to a digital representation of you
you will be preserved even after deletion
your good self cloned for immortality
your iris are all mine to paraphrase the line
for a designated time
and for all time
we can match you with any crime
many have already given away their dna
those ancestral databases entice better than we expected
yeah turns out i am related to cleopatra and a manchurian dentist
at least i know who i am now..


you will always be treasured as our collectable asset
as unique as non-fungible art
as fresh as a bullet point
a bullet point with a flexible expiry date..

we have a sense of urgency for we are time-bound
do not fret about this
it is quite profound
it is way above your pay grade
this war being partly metaphysical
we are called soulless but in fact we are very mystical..

so not long now
before your central bank digital currency saves you
block and chain
get ready for the new now
we are wizards
we are wizards
alchemists of this turning
alchemists of the golden nothing
first a little more trauma must be tapped and released
we will feed on those sweets
as we resolutely respond to the cries for the treatment
then everyone will be initiated
spirit annhialating spirit and to deadline
then out will be carved a remarkable new time..

with your diaphanous bearded testicle of one breast
please forgive me for i have transgressed

father superior booth granny
i confess i am plagued of murmurings possessed
self-crimpled i drain deliquescent
gurgling throughout my murky thought-canals
obtuse and unreasoning
afflicted as i am with..
thinking...thinking..
i beg you to carve..

oh it shall be done
i shall be booth granny
you did right by informing on yourself..

all the blessings of the grand schwabia upon you
let pebbles of his magnificence bathe you
sup this smart-dust wafer
take these vampire protein spikes
i press this implant upon you
my rod of furry prions shall transform you
explode you with my light
and should you succumb to any more..
any more..thoughts..
please return at once for attitudinal correctives
let this laser scalpel be your guide..

father superior booth granny
your fluoride is my apple juice
my gonads i need them not..

your third eye
for the state delicatessen..

i feel it already oh i feel it
i am it..
i humbly donate all my extractions to grand schwabia..

your second-sight folded in toto
stay blissful in the smart city grid

as you have done for grand schwabia
stay designed
stay the humble subject of grand schwabia

you are now boosted to optimum levels..

father superior booth granny
with your diaphanous bearded testicle of one breast

what was i about to say next..
my thoughts are..scattered..
i..

ah..i see you are done
take a whole day off work
rest and..
stay designed
and do not do any headstands for a while
for your head bandages are to be recycled..

Imaginary Friend

 

and there
right there beside you
beside you while passing this strange fairground land
the shadow-blending play arcs a spectrum of light
the presence there from the vast somewhere 
the grain the essence the flare of the imaginary friend..

there to bear arms with you in the here and tomorrow
or for while mysterious scales stay tipped
for perhaps the existential vacuum is corded
connecting reconnecting layering
reciprocating then replaying
meaning
load-bearing the real with the imaginary transcending...

you have your imaginary friend..
i have to go
i have to go..
..soon..

..and their imaginary friend
the contrail the wisp of cloud interlace..

in all the plasticity
in all the hardness
in all the contrariness
in the whole dynamic
in the loss
in the broken bond shock
in the confusion at the discord
in the heartache still beating to an echo of a once syncopated time
in the imaginary friend the imaginary friend..

the imaginary friend
the imaginary friend wept as you wept
their firm touch
the flesh your
 corrugated angel felt
through and through
the bracing ocean breeze ozone
the gold
the entre nous secrets
the dark humour in those soft stones
now here bygone..

the imaginary friend
some adults grow out of it
in deeper space catch themselves
wondering who
wondering what they were
what gifts..

laid low reflective as clear as a bell
chiming the minor chords of burst bubble-time struck angular
forlorn pressed against the vast
as a certain comet once near passes
offering a generous peacock display of ice and dust-trail fireworks..

shared conversations confidences the concord
and the oz-effect of that silence so listening
so breathing
so present
so being
the alone so entangled..
