February 2024

Birth of the Cool















Thursday February 01, 2024 
Its significance 
is no more and no less than
the birth of their cool. 
The Miles Davis nonet 
is live without a net now. 

Friday February 02, 2024 
He is still looking 
for a way to recover 
his bread and butter.  
The irony is that he  
is being used by users.  

Saturday February 03, 2024 
It is probably 
too much too late at this late 
stage of his story.  
What does it mean to say this 
when there are no accidents? 

Sunday February 04, 2024 
It is comforting 
for him to know he is read 
with quiet reverence.  
To be received in this way 
is much more than he deserves.  

Monday February 05, 2024
Missing the deadline
just might mean that he is no
longer required.
Could risk intelligence end
up becoming his way out?

Tuesday February 06, 2024 
He’s been carrying 
a torch for over forty 
years of his life now.  
He did not let the light fade
to black during their silence. 

Wednesday February 07, 2024 
Hopeless romantics 
are simply in love with love 
(hence their fair despair). 
True romantic troubadours
are not so solipsistic.  

Thursday February 08, 2024 
The Ignatian claim 
that God is in all things 
is doctrine enough. 
Paying attention is his  
Summa Theologica

Friday February 09, 2024 
He walks the pagan 
streams as the great-great-being 
still watches over. 
The master from Germany  
makes his journey easier.  

Saturday February 10, 2024 
It is best for him
to refrain and then remain
within his own lane. 
Despite his love and his care, 
he should just stare and repair. 

Sunday February 11, 2024 
Soon he will be gone 
from the corner of the world 
he has called his home.  
Finally an exception to 
the ten times in ten years rule! 

Monday February 12, 2024 
He has been so kind 
about the situation 
(they have no idea).  
So it should not surprise them 
that he has no more to say.  

Tuesday February 13, 2024 
He could clearly tell 
from their unusual tone 
that all was not well.  
This may be the beginning 
of his end with all of them.  

Wednesday February 14, 2024 
Climbing that yonder 
hillside alone has always  
been his lot in life.  
He has no right to complain 
about it being unfair.  

Thursday February 15, 2024 
The thing that he fears 
the most is interfering 
where they're not wanted. 
He fights this daily battle 
between ration and passion.  

Friday February 16, 2024
The store owner took
what was offered and gave back
nothing in return. 
Professional courtesy
was absent in this instance.

Saturday February 17, 2024 
Nineteen sixty-six 
was the year philosophy 
died with dignity.  
The Der Spiegel interview 
is its obituary.  

Sunday February 18, 2024 
Meeting an old friend  
and then a brand new one too 
made both of their days. 
He was happy that they make 
such a beautiful couple.  

Monday February 19, 2024 
He remembers when 
they would sit, and he would sing
“...no woman, no cry...” 
Why must there be this sorrow 
when tomorrow brings one love? 

Tuesday February 20, 2024 
His original 
plan was to retreat today 
away from that world.  
But then his second and third 
thoughts rearranged his schedule. 

Wednesday February 21, 2024 
Unlike BBB
before him, he by-passes
the correlation. 
His methodological
nominalism remains. 

Thursday February 22, 2024 
And then suddenly 
he wonders whether his words 
are still being read. 
They are all he has left now 
that he has been left for dead. 

Friday February 23, 2024 
And then suddenly 
his favorite Polish word lives  
within his inbox. 
Bardzo’s hidden history 
will never be narrated.  

Saturday February 24, 2024 
And then suddenly 
after a prolonged silence
they are making words.  
His grandfather’s pocket watch 
stops working in Rumi’s field.  

Sunday February 25, 2024 
He received the bite 
as an initiation 
rite into The D’arge. 
They talked well into the night 
with his playful approval.  

Monday February 26, 2024 
The longevity
of their joy unspeakable, 
so full of stories! 
Who knew linearity 
would not be conspicuous? 

Tuesday February 27, 2024 
When he was informed 
that it was already filled, 
the next one appeared. 
It might turn out like the rest, 
but that’s simply not the point.  

Wednesday February 28, 2024 
This is involving 
more chaotic disruption 
than he expected. 
It’s at the point where income 
is now a minor concern.  

Thursday February 29, 2024 
He reached out to him 
to ask him to reach out to 
their old wrecking crew.  
He once gave them wise guidance, 
so now it’s their turn to give.
