Part 1 —
Hello Memory
We can learn to be better from a life’s journeyed baggage, doing without returning regret…

Information arrives and leaves, strung on vibrant lines,
pinging off life poles down a highway, away, forgotten —
until older, when it returns…and wise. Hello memory —
looking knowable, sitting in on the current conversation.

Experienced knowledge, sentient and renewed, memory
is perhaps, a good friend to — eternally — drink with,
consider all that no tool restores, with mistakes yet to come.
We can fix this, rebuild and drive to destinations where it gathers —

Life.

With future plans together, we greet new memories daily.
Each earns a seat at the bar — a cherry in every drink.
We can say goodbye to the unknowable, regrettable
and forgettable paths taken. To new choices, we toast.

Now we see your metaphor clearly.
*nods knowingly*

Some problems don’t want to resolve…(I know you’re hurting)



AI Overview
"Fade Into You" by Mazzy Star is often interpreted as a song about deep longing and the desire for a profound connection, particularly in the context of unrequited love. The lyrics express a yearning to understand and merge with another person, but also a sense of distance and the realization that such a deep connection might not be possible.

Longing for Intimacy:
The lyrics "I want to hold the hand inside you/ I want to take a breath that's true" express a desire for a deep, almost merging, connection with another person.

Unrequited Love:
The lines "I look to you and I see nothing/ I look to you to see the truth" suggest a lack of reciprocation, a feeling that the other person doesn't share the same intensity of emotion or perhaps is not even aware of the narrator's feelings.

Lost in the Other's World:
The phrase "fade into you" can be interpreted as the narrator wanting to become one with the other person, but also as a sense of losing oneself or becoming absorbed in the other's world, perhaps to the point of losing one's own identity.

Bittersweet Acceptance:
The song doesn't explicitly state a resolution, but the overall tone suggests a bittersweet acceptance of the distance and the possibility that a complete connection may not be attainable.

Overall, the song captures the complex emotions of longing, desire, and the bittersweet nature of love and connection, with a focus on the yearning for a deeper, more intimate relationship.

I’m all that and more, if you’ve explored. It’s what I’ve handled my whole life, a bar kept that high challenges one who has no quit. Life as a stubborn constant sees this obtuse math subjectively.

Part 2 —
Our Coda Today — Immutable

And now, my heart is open, freely, to accept the immutable.
Witness all my deaths and let know which one felt that kills you.
I…will resurrect any with the same knowledge of suffrage —
in grace, an offering of my love’s words.

Let me heal your wounds that you might love again, another,
and the whole damn, guiltless world…that ignorant, dehumanizes.
Isolated. What are these walls made of? If we breach
the dark compound, wander in a garden’s light, learn —

complex emotions can be greater than restraint hate.
Careful of those arrows, immutable. The worth risk — taken.
Arrows don’t seek the dead, unaware a heart yet lives.
Let the sun kiss those precious eyes that fully realize.

Blessings to you

Can you believe? I’m only getting started…on some mercy mission?
Spare yourself where innocence never repairs. Fight hate with a hug.

Kisses for tear-streaked cheeks

*whispers* I’m no savior. I barely…but then…and my eyes…a sword…to feet…lift, flex —

re-energized quill in question again/always, saves all but one for freedom.
