when propane nightmares become
lucid dreams involving our poletriarch the tezpole i give
myself over to feeling i am ~washed out
abandon my source filmmaker backseat
—which was funny in 2007 but passivity & culture can't go in a blender—
abandon my passenger seat pov to press some arcade buttons on the reverse side of the tezpole :heavy_kick: :light_punch: :medium_punch: :light_punch:
and wiggle a blue plastic arcade 8-direction joystick, piloting a miniscule Nostalgia 2023 Plus fighter ship the
decentralized armada forms & confronts CANYchain
(som avslutet av nier automata;)
[k0nam1 c0de useless: there’s a time and a place for everything not here/now— the 1 true t3zpol3 code does the 7rick though]
now i stand back. others before me are standing back. new people approach, button mash, then stand back.
hmmmmm some1 watches
watches over the pole (has for hours? (from the same chair? (the pole caretaker?)))
many re-take their pole position to mash more buttons and waggle more joysticks. they have more tokens. (i had only 2). yet the high score goes to all of us, well actually
to the tezpole—
—to the space
to the aether—
to initials “XTZ”—
—glowing bold
we become as gods they will remember
via a next-generation Wayback Machine for aeons
our drive
ignites the pole’s mouth spews cables strange energy fields abuzz. tezpole spins. slowly. then less slowly.
(we step back by ryan & 👁️gle)
the (mostly benevolent) chaotic majora mask of 2023 in structural support form flailing flailing cords around while Block Town slumbers
painful-at-first-but-then-invigorating blue arcs rapidly randomly connect tezpole to every one of us individually
“where there’s a glitch there’s a way” ~an orc said that
now:
last call now. even fx needs sleep
tezpole gives & receives high-fives to departing machines
the carbon-neutral smoke clears, i cough anyway
South Block Town heavenly rejoices “three more days! thr3e more days! THREE MORE DAYS!”
history must repeat or it ends <:-}
“tezpole, did we do good?”
I’m sorry. As a screen-laden pole I cannot respond to public questions. Only inside your individual heads can I speak freely!
