observation 6/17/17

observation functions much like a press pass,

not instrumentally involved by presence or action

but all eyes and ears

are looking to create hot topics

out of recontextualization as it serves my needs.

stimulation is about pick and choose.

I have a sense of permission to be here

but not obliged to formally participate.

I spectate and cogitate.

I am somewhat numb to be integral aspects,

not asked, not wanted, not seen as needed,

just surveying for parts and pieces to be meaningful.

my understanding is really a collage,

a hodgepodge of streamings and amusing to me.

I have my consensual right to do so,

after all, experience is a birthright

and mind-fill is an obvious means.

I take an amusing interest in understanding

but there is a vagueness to my sense of involvement.

I am a bystander in a drive by mode

there is generally an impotence to my participation

I am a one-minute sketch

of an every second of hologram happening.

that I derive is my business, privately edited.

sure you may give me a song book

but I might only skim and inadvertently hum.

participation is a whole other method of attendance.

observation has a whole camouflage of intentions

and a privacy of means . . .

(observe me and you will learn . . .)
