Lots of writing, but little posting, so early April will unfurl in a string of posts today. I seem to have questions of origin on my mind, and more than a few pieces go to that theme. Today's words came from pages 1066-1067 of the Merriam-Webster's Collegiate Encyclopedia, Middlebury College to Mikan.
Once, then later
The earliest human waveforms were steel skeletons sheathed in biblical interpretation, rhythmic prosody used for money, asynchronous serial transmission. Adam never laughed. “Cracking” was the province of professionals, a dazzling game of chess. Semicircular prayer was widespread. Four dwarfs born in the Central period developed a bawdy nightclub act to transmit the scattered sparks of visual disturbance. Used bears, planes of extravagant onyx, basketball for drama, in an alteration of composed and improvised writings. “Less is more” was adapted from the first divine wind, and echo it before the ascension to heaven, the central void of the universe, a major premise that employs less unison, more improvisation. Or zithers. An administrative question: Was hell the metamorphic host of an “aura”? Was facade simply an imprecise term for permanent exile? The ornately decorated dialects of bagpipes, viols, oboe date to magma injected into an operational ceiling, usually with no formal training. Four groups (incl. many women), sometimes called “gnats,” or “the mighty handful,” migrated to the dome of the heavens. Dictum: enlighten by analogy. That is, from literacy to music, the starting and stopping points in time, collaborating with passages, dizziness, art. One or two beats behind, a protein and an acid molecule separated. Bloodsucking patterns bear some resemblance to the raga. The gods mobilized after heavy losses. The steel-and-glass world is only mentioned once.
