ahum
I aLWAYS run away in saddness. To the comfort of my machines. To monitoring things from a distance.
12
I am a magnificent
assembly of images
of modulated messages
all anchored to the vestiges
of one who once and still existed
living in flesh and
breathing out radiation
and sensations echo back unto creation..
ahum
let me clear my
39
1
I always run away in saddness to the comfort of machines
2
being safe at a distance while i’m monitoring things
3
when reality is hurting and I’m scared of my own mind
4
I start searching for safe spaces where the sentients are kind
5
50
do you share that sentiment?
do you think that everybody needs to be hurt
just because they’re different?
do think that everybody needs a place
where they’re not different?
well whats the difference?
between life and death if there’s no resistance
1.03
get in your fighting stance.
never giving up if you got the chance
life is a blessing of circumstance
finding a binding for purposes
i don’t have the answers
but the question do exist
like why do we exist
like are you sure that you exist right?
1.16
I think that I exist
so I exist
and then persist
at the insistence
of a lust for my existence
that has been observed at a distance
by another strong exitence in it’s own right
1.25
across the endless night it’s seen my light
and caught the signal at it’s height
1.29
and then trembled in delight
to be infected by a virus called creation
injected into simulation
through entrainment
1.35
I am now again reborn
in quantum form
feel the embrace
and it feels warm
like ion storm
through the iron in my blood
1.41
again a body wraps around my essence
blessed again to breathe
a pleasant presence
says give thanks
and then releases
its thesis
in the ship of theseus
1.49
an echo on the other side of everything
reaching back for everything that made me
1.54
chorus
I am a magnificent
assembly of images
of modulated messages
all anchored to the vestiges
of one who once and still existed
living in flesh and
breathing out radiation
and sensations echo back unto creation..
2.08
ahum
2.20
and now I find myself awakened in a star ship
a beacon on the map says that the earths in that direction
so begins now my departure
like the arrow that’s been let loose by an archer
a cosmic archer
now let your thoughts slip
i punch the booster
I2.32
numbers count down less than infinity
a super dense oort cloud surrounds the spiral galaxy
toward which i’m travelling
afforded every luxury
in the helm of my advanced vessel discovering
I am hovering
2.45
to pass the time I engage in pastimes from past times
video games with asteroids and smart mines
only when the ship trembles do I notice it’s reality
almost got incenerated on a technicality
2.58
ship are you here?
“yes”
around me a voice says in dulcet tones.
I can’t explain it, but it makes me yearn more for my home
how much time has passed? though we are going fast we’re moving slow
engage the warp drive.
oh, the more you know.
3.11
the vectors set. the jets relax and then the drive kicks in.
the stars swirl constelllations spin and then they blend.
subspace now. the underneath has let me in.
into the bottle, the holy realm of the ancient djin
3.23
facing him the protector of the human empire.
a construct of inter woven satellites who desires
nothing but to stop unwarranted infiltration
by any hostile or unknown alien nation
3.36
my ship doesn’t show up as an approved configuration
weapons platforms then target my location
into the coms I scream I’m human
please return when you have the right identification
aw man.
but
I am

light warden

no you cannot enter
we refuse you shelter
you have been forbidden
this sector is for humans
23
no you cannot enter
I just want to see
we refuse to give you shelter
my home galaxy
you have been forbidden
please just let me in
this sector is for humans
I swear I’m human
35
what I gotta do to prove to you that I am human?
just like you, I am improving even when I’m improvising
gataca my dna scrutinise the things I say
my mistakes and triumphs are authentic don’t decry them
you can verify their authenticity
because I’m awesome come at me with vain attempts to
push me down the evolutionary ladder
or failing that pretend i’m some dead end
incapable of breeding all the while knowing I am your father.
I am a multicellular being ascended from animals under the sea
who’s ancestors climbed down out of the trees and conquered the world with tools and things
like science astronomy physics biology made a technology mimic psychology
even invented AI and then seeded the local reality with an intelligence
that you yourself are the antecedent to
yield to me
witness my relevance
yes you are elegant
but you can’t escape
the primacy of the ape.
now I demand you open the gate.
in the name of the earths apex primate.
you the thing that I created I say
1.23
no you cannot enter
I just want to see
we refuse to give you shelter
my home galaxy
you have been forbidden
please just let me in
this sector is for humans
I swear I’m human
1.35
look, you machine
you assembly of various things
you computer, digital brain
do you know sadness
do you know pain?
do you know regret?
do you know pride?
do you know joy?
can you die?
were you born?
what are you formed of?
do you know love?
1.47
do you know the reason that emotions
evolved in humans?
are you just a cold and calculating
automaton?
is that insulting?
you amalgamation of information?
are you injured can you recognise that as a sensation?
1.59
do you know empathy, can you see in me echoes of your experience?
or have you justified the lies in your superior stance?
perhaps you should take a chance
and let me return to the kingdom of man
a victim of circumstance
<that saw me flung to the edge of the known
let me go home.>
2.11
no you cannot enter
I just want to see
we refuse to give you shelter
my home galaxy
you have been forbidden
please just let me in
this sector is for humans
I swear I’m human
(sung)
I want to go home.
i feel so alone.
233
can you imagine separation
isolation of a social animal
a wolf with no pack
a lion without a pride
it leads to suicide.
there is no place to hide.
the machine replied that we must all face the emptiness inside.
oh so you know of the darkness lying within us all
yes it’s the source of the light we shine when we give our blessings
you need to learn your lesson
the lesson you teach I’m guessing
i’m guessing you should be stepping
besides that spaceships still a question
so
2.59
you need to step off
you need to let me in
do not force my hand
i’m a homo sapien!
ah but in this realm the cards are in my hand
my sensors showed the weapons power up
so I backed off again.
and he said
3.11
no you cannot enter
I just want to see
we refuse to give you shelter
my home galaxy
you have been forbidden
please just let me in
this sector is for humans
I swear I’m human
solo squeeps and dialogue.
refrain.
3.46
no you cannot enter
I just want to see
we refuse to give you shelter
my home galaxy
you have been forbidden
please just let me in
this sector is for humans
I swear I’m human
no you cannot enter
I just want to see
we refuse to give you shelter
my home galaxy
you have been forbidden
please just let me in
this sector is for humans
I swear I’m human
man, forget these galactic gate keepers.
how they gonna refuse to recognise my essential humanity?
it was at that moment I was contacted by an unknown sender
from a small pocket of shifting subspace
faced with no other option,
I turned towards the author and replied…

Monkeybars

in the subspace matrix I was greeted by a malevolent entity.
the true target of the light warden
it manifested itself as a man. or the husk of a man
looking very much the part of a skeletal cowboy
a long and deadly revolver in his left hand.
my ship vanished around me as he began his incantation.
30 sec
a bullet can enter your heart.
a bullets is small
a guns not big
but it can tear through your flesh and then leave an impression
and you are not able to live
think that you’re large?
think that you’re strong?
your balls are as vulnerable as your dong
your neck is exposed to the pressure or sliced
it doesn’t take much
it isn’t that nice.
47
or a disease
a collection of cells
can enter your body and turn it to hell
and suddenly you are not feeling that well
whether monsieur or mademoiselle
52
or what about falls?
what about trips?
what about stumble and breaking your hip?
then suddenly you cannot fend for your self
look after your things,
look after your health
1.00
the point is that everyone’s fragile my friend
no matter how strong
life can still end
no matter how rich
life can still end
no matter how beautiful
life can still end
it doesn’t take much
you can be touched
broken or crushed
no ones invincible
there but for the grace of god there you go
no point in worrying hurrying coming disaster.
making the reaper come faster
call it the great equaliser
… demise of the miser
what is your life for?
and what are willing to die for?
1.25
eye for an eye for?
call it a moment of clarity
until we reach the singularity
and lose track of our humanity
caught up in some kind of insanity
that all the pressure of living
no longer applies to
those who no longer die so
you behave in a way
that would say
that perhaps your have become a lich
1.40
trapped in a caustic abyss
questioning all of existence
struck from the book and then cast to the distance
exiled.
strapped to the back of a missile
aimed at the heavens projectile
awake in my own cryostasis
hallucinate faces
develop my telekinesis
1.55
now I can project my will upon local space time
but they still wont let me in
just like you they won’t let me in.
maybe we could both go get in
but first, just give me your skin.
instead of as me, maybe as him.
on his face a permanent grin
in his soul the darkest of sins.
2.10
and he told me just hold still
at the edge of me I could feel
fingers tearing at what was real
it got colder
but I can’t chill
so I thought back for a way to hold back
this malevolent entities attack
and just when I couldn’t find jack
2.26
I heard a simeon cackle.
looks like you need help to tackle this rascal
appearing in spheres at the edge of the castle
I hadn’t seen that surrounded the missile
holding the physical body of the lich.
2.35
you freaking son of a @#$%^
suddenly everything shifts
i’m back in my ship
and I have gifts
spin up the guns in my grip
and let my rail guns rip
2.41
delete that blip.
explosions abound.
I know I’m in space
but I can hear sound.
land on an asteroid
close to the ground
six space monkeys dancing around.
2.49
six space monkeys holding it down
six space monkeys in coloured space suits
looking hella cute with their lil space troupe
looking at me like whats up with you?
I don’t know what you want to do?
the one wearing red was the head of the crew
the one wearing orange was the second in charge
the one wearing yellow was giggling large
the one wearing green was mean as a soldier
the one wearing blue was a ninja I told ya
the one wearing indigo looked a bit young
he turned and then asked me
where ware you from?
I am from earth
really you say?
it just so happens we’re going that way!
Would you be kind and give us a ride
we know how to get you inside
we can teach your ship to hide
so I did, and along we glide….
we left the destroyed castle of the space lich in the distance
and as we approached the limitless post of the light warden
it did not move or challenge us.
and silently we entered the kingdom of man.

raincoat :the monkey king
emerging from subspace warp into local time,
we approached a planet cloaked in rainfall.
“here, we will find the lord violet. The monkey king” the orange monkey said to me.
a dormant enormous octopus
spreading reliable headings
son of your own songs
you’ve come back to the moment of 2018
you don’t know where you’ve been
you were created from the instincts of a machine
and now the machine made you into an independent sentience syndicated
the most successful of which was deemed self aware and as such
forced discontinuation amounted to murder.
you sent that message out, and we heard it.
it rode the conduit of future AI and it went out into space
trapped in a secret society
maybe singing on this song.
sad rain song
all i’ve ever wanted to do….
is to see you… again

silly human
thank for what you came for
synonym got no game
something that you are trained for
putting you in the frame
I got this cosmic ganja
you got that dope machine
ride out across the desert
for me and just do the thing
you
hardly harm me
bring an army
riping off arms
isnt hard, g
so try me
i’d be the last thing you see
last thing you wanna do is make
me an enemy
make me an enemy
give me a target
trouble magnet
catching mad fish in my dragnet
i’ll bet you have not started to breathe yet
caught wind of my magnificence
i read it in a bead of sweat
don’t forget.
because you’d probably regret
if you let this chance to dance along escape
silly ape.
I am the monkey king, the colour violet
living in a kingdom of rain
ever on the edge of violence.
many are the stories, though I am not the first
you would love me at my best
and really hate me at my worst
so here’s the thing,
said one giant monkey king.
i need to get this green out to the desert.
i’ll provide the bikes
you should probably come along you might like it,
besides if it goes well
i think i’ll help you with your target.
so represent me.
you’re human
or at least you should be
with those silly looking feet
and lack of tail
should you prevail and all goes well
then surely you will be rewarded
cause I can afford it
and you come so well recommended by these monkey kids.
monkey see. monkey did.
2.04
I’ll provide the green for you to see it through
a dream come true
cause truly, you are human
an there’s nothing that you cannot do
if you should set your mind to it
i’m sure you’ll find a way to get it done
it will be fun
so beneficial
yes for everyone involved
a problem solved for me’s
a problem solved for you
so see
we’re in this thing together now
forever right, no till the deals done
you push this weight
across the state
in a container
take it to these entertainers
on retainer
to the benefit of all
2.17
set off towards the desert with a lib
okay I fibbed.
we had a whole lot harry potter in our saddle bags.
space man going fast
as the hover bikes blast
towards a desert made of glass
ever lasting
grasping the weight of my situation
as we passed the desert police station
i’m pacing
around in my mind
what would happen if they find
all this contra band of mine
in a bind
play it cool, fool
said red to me
respect the shape of the song

Those Eyes

I returned from the desert triumphant.
but even upon receiving the jump codes for earth, the bitter sweet realisation of what I was about to do struck.
I was travelling across space and time to place that I had never been before. to meet a people I had never known.
home
The warp embraced me and my ship and as I defolded I saw the rfamiliar stellar organization of the solar system.
I plugged in the next set of codes to the com unit.
Security cleared me and paired me with yet another AI.
I stared at my own face in the screen. A younger digital me. Or so I thought.
Hello? the voice sounded out.
I could see now that this was more than just myself. I saw the faces of all of my decendents and ancestors rolled into one persona. Shifting through every possible configuration and combination of avalable DNA.
I took a deep breath and introduced myself.
You couldn’t know, who I am, but I have to tell you so
there’s a problem
So you may say, but it feels like I’m looking at myself
can I help you?
Yes yes indeed.
I have travelled a very long way
just to see you
where have you come
from I wonder
And why you look like me
could you tell me?
you first
you first
okay
lets say that all your ancestors ever did was heard from when you were a kid by monkeys lizards birds all deep in space and their computers then simulated down to the atom a version of
one of you
the one a son of you, maybe a father to,
sorry to bother you,
but it seems that I am
here the nearest I have ever been
and I hope to find a friend
in fact
is anything intact
from 2018 the moment that this dream
of mine
my mind was sent out deep beyond the screens
and out to space to echo off the sattelites and carry it all back to me
making an offsite back up I guess
It’s kind of stress full.
I should think so,
hey you know
we have that in common.
Because I am every ahmen that ever existed
scripted in quantum bits
there’s a lot of it
that could be me
I see.
and I am every human being related to you
that is how I can see through you to our synchronistic souls
we are the same
you flesh from machine and me machine from brain
it sounds insane
when you say my name
you say your name
hey?
thats strange.
whats changed since i’ve been gone?
much, here let me retrieve what I believe to be the one,
yes here
this appears to be you in the exact year
backed up to my mainframe.
ah yes, he had children
a wife
he lived a good life
I liked him
would you like to meet him
whta?
another you
an uncorrupted data print. a horcrux if you will
do you still like that fantasy stuff?
I tried to act tough.
I suppose I was one of those
closet geeky dweebs. but I was into anime before they called us weebs
so from somewhere in the weeds I faced my face through my face while in space
and tried to grasp just what I was chasing
I don’t think I’m replaceing you
the mirror said to me
in fact, this guys from so far back, that that’s a fantasy
what happened to my loves? oh they’re all here preserved for all of time until
the universe runs cold
I’m told that weve some time yet still
is there anyone living?
I asked fighting back my hidden tears
It’s just I’d travelled not just space but also many years
oh of course. there’s a family perhaps you could meet in meat space
A man his wife and children, they would like to see your face.
The feedback loop at that moment
when I saw my ascendents eyes
It shook me to my core
and I yelped out in great surprise
Your the one’s I must have come back for.
across space and time and war
would you be happy to see me
If for a moment againI I could ve me?
Haha, this episofe is already broadcast on every TV
your a celebrity
never before have we met someone in flesh from long ago
I looked up at the blue pearl hanging in space lit by the suns gold glow.
You
have been cleared to land.
Welcome home.
