Two poems

Prelude


Her eyes become round
with a spiritual and false mascara
that my mind places on them like the thoughts of the mind
that give the impression of space.

How many miles I would have traveled
To see these things that were always within me
That my visual sense superimposes upon her face.

Photograph Collection

Italicized amber eyes, blessed approximations of circles,
Iris prisons of radiance, playful spheres of influence.
Animated with permanence, crystalline, coy, cartoonishly round,
Your eyes are gracious and resonant and soft.

Your wonderful face that is a highway advertisement of kindness
and a stock exchange reel describing beauty.

I’d rather look at your face than clusters of acacias,
jackaranadas, ash trees, chestnut trees,
Sugarberries or waterapples.

And I’d rather look at your eyes than vasefulls of amaryllises,
daffodils, roses, violets, daisies,
birds of paradise, larkspur or tulips.

The roundness of you could be the roundness of all things.

Fled is a song that once was sung,
Before the timing of some infinitely vanishing set
On which a wry grace note is hung upon.

--

A lip lapses and pals spill autumn qua mid autumn.
gargantuanly engaged ethnic studies department, and some considerations.

--

When an oaf took aft,
When tort and affidavit fizzed
Like odes and commodity wisely adamixtured,
Then a rose stratified and stultified arises morosely.
Just saying: flung with an ionian is an onion.

--

color-yellowed, savory-diaphanous, savory-sheer,
Round-as-loud, blurred-with-a-blare grasp and a
rasp and an asp as a rounded

--

Floribund, rubicund amps and some amplitudes grasps and rasps
At blusters with high small suit who bunts out small smells at
November surrounding souls and sonorous boolean operators

--

A Turing machine collates left then left again then right then left
Registering effortlessly and shifting towards redness
With heavenly cubed and accelerated expansion.

--

The overtone series undulates as to ululate . . .
and continues during dweeby duration, with tension . . .

--
Archipelagos and archipelagos and archipelagos,
Plentiful twinkles of cobalt featurelessness and azure featurelessness and emerald featurelessness . . .
a ferry passes alongside the Golden Gate bridge . . .

--

It all diminishes into comprehensive nothingness . . .
becoming even more of a nothingness than the nothingness it was . . .

--

The highest end is not satisfaction but desire,
not the acquisition of love but the passionate pursuit of it,
not the arc but the integral showing how the arc changes,
Like a thing that’s autumn-haunted and ever-rising.

Could I prove the perfection is ever-rising,
and that there is always some better sentiment out of reach,
Like Euclid's higher prime or the superset past the other sets?

Even if over the years for this evidence I tried,
I would, just to be safe, commit to believe that I had already
found this thing in you, in case it turned out to be otherwise . . .

Doubts About Logical Implication and Cause

Thesis: “logical implication” and “causation” are terms that correspond to ideas that probably don’t describe reality. The instances in which “logical implication” does not describe reality are those in which they mirror “causation” in terms of the images of thoughts that correspond with them. I will first take a look at logical implication, and then the notion of causation based off the contentions of Hume, and then describe possible strategies to describe reality that are free of both the ideas of logical implication and cause. (the notions of logical implication and cause are not themselves subject to logical implication and cause). The bivalence functor may be argued to be talking about synonyms at times. De Morgan’s law may be an instance of logical grammar determining instances, and may be related to when multiple descriptions result in the same outcome. This may be another class. These things should be said to be what is not being described in the essay. Any abstraction using ...

Step-by-Step Instructions for Increasing Intelligence

The following are step-by-step instructions for increasing the speed of your intelligence using an idea that shows up CBT. Specifically, the belief behind the instructions is that a person can increase their intelligence by challenge irrational should statements that normally function to limit a person’s intelligence level. Intelligence when used in the right way can help humans get what they want out of life, such as food, shelter, safety, the stuf of romance and relationships, children--if it’s a goal that’s important to you than intelligence can probably be of some use. Because of all these things it seems worthwhile to consider ways in which you can increase itm especially if you find yourself in a tight pinch in life. 1) Consider what type of intelligence you want to increase. You can increase particular types of intelligence like verbal intelligence, visual intelligence, or musical skill. 2) Tell your mind that you want it to improve in terms of that particular form of intelligen...

The Ability of Computers to Compute Mathematical Proposition

  I think the computers are able to figure out with an algorithm the propositions accepted as true by the mathematics community. To boot, I think there are holes in Godel's incompleteness theorem and Turing's halting problem resulting from the formalism employed in these proofs and concepts that are assumed in them. One gets the impression that Godel's mathematical platonism indicated that mathematics was something that occurred in the minds of people in a way axiomatic formal systems of math did not capture. Many believe that Godel's theorem also shows that certain mathematical propositions are not able to be solved by an algorithm used by a computer. One such person is mathematical physicist Roger Penrose. I don't see from a logical point of view how his arguments lead to a conclusion that machines can't compute mathematical propositions, a position that he attempts to argue for in books like An Emperor's New Mind and Shadows of the Mind. In this brief w...
