the moving finger scrolls

and having scrolled,

scrolls on: nor all the bitcoin in mt gox

Shall lure it back not half a page

Nor all thy tears repair your broken synapse

Obviously my poem today is based very tightly on a stanza from the epic poem, I suppose you would call it, the Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyám, which I read as a kid at some point.
impressive work from the dude himself and the translator, who quick googling and the internet tells me is Edward FitzGerald

Moves on: nor all thy Piety nor Wit
Shall lure it back to cancel half a Line,
Nor all thy Tears wash out a Word of it.”

I loved speed scrolling through that image. It's too short though. I need a 20 minute speed scroll meditation image. ;-) I'm just kidding. maybe 5 minutes is as long as I could do while tapped into the blockchain

this place is synchronicity city

here have a synapse work from the past!

It was going to be a book but that fell through!
or I fell through
some crack in the ice
that appeared under my feet
