. . . in the room, a vitrine.

Rum
         I know wha a vitrine is

    You’re confusing me.

You confused me  Rum

Room.

Wha I said
             Whereya from

Louisiana.

Thereya have it Accent  Certain words
                                          Yasaid room I heard rum  The accent
We agree vitrine is a glass showcase cabinet to display objects arranged in vignettes  Fine wares   Taxonomically

I wouldn’t say that.
                        But yes.
Was being thorough
I do tha

    Where are you from?

Chicago

Yes.

Havin an epiphany

The accent.

Howso

Rum. Chicawgo.

Thas howya say it

As I did. As did I.

    Wheres an alien whenya need one
                                             Just like a cop

. . . cognisable
                 liked the word

You mean like, cognoscible?

I don know whatha is

Similar, they’re synonyms, adjectives, though cognizable is more familiar, better-known.

I wasnt familiar

Look at you, now you know. Nice one to have on hand, in your pocket, in a pinch.

Capable of being known
                                This a pinch

I suppose it must have been, yes.

Incognisable  Incognoscible

Obviously.

Yes Although likely more sides to it than a simple coin toss   Faceted

I’d agree.

I concur

she laughed You do like to concur.
I love concurring

Which is usually a stretch, contrary as you are, when someone converses, discusses . .
. . Argues

    I wasn’t going there.

How coudya not
                    We were arguing
An heeled with concur
Friends

sighed  You’re hard to be a friend with.

If everything has to make sense  Is cognisable cognoscible
                                                                   Yes
Box it up

Im not keen on containment


Though you understand bounds, boundaries.

I understand they are not impervious there are minute spiracles reeds to breathe air through while submerged  immersed  Deepdeep in the weeds
Cant see the forest for the trees
Forest is there

Birdseye view

    That’s too convoluted for me.    Granular.

Youre linear
                Thad kill me

Absurd has its place

And you always set a place for it at the dinner table.

Yah  The worlds a banquet
                                  I eat it with my hands

Emergence

                  couldnt let eternity go


he had irked him with it

told him Its a system

Every system has a beginning
                                 “In philosophy, system theory, science, and art, emergence occurs when a complex entity has properties or behaviors that its parts do not have on their own, and emerge only when they interact in a wider whole. Emergence plays a central role in theories or integrative levels and of complex systems.”

You said The whole is greater than the sum of its parts
                                                            Misconstrued attributed to Aristotle
Though in the ballpark

Shall we talk about my emergence

You think you have emerged?

Emerged  Evolved
                   You

Depends upon what you mean.

Wha it means to you might be the better question asked
                                                                 Or unasked if you wishwhacha got

You’re confusing me.

Youre easily confused
                        Answer or not the question

You have to say like that?

Your option
              Have you emerged Consider yourself an insect metamorphosizing
Egg  Larva  Pupa  Adolt

Adult.

To some though Im referring to you
You’re an asshole.

An asshole with an asshole

What do you mean?

What does it mean to you
                           But lets not slip my first inquiry  Have you emerged

I don’t know where this is going.

It aint goin anywherestagnant until you   dare I  begin
                                                              Or are you tha eternity you insist is without beginning without end
Boorish

Emerged


    I don’t know how to answer you correctly.

Theres no right or wrong answer
                                    All you have to do is say
Fuckinsaysomething

Doesnt look like thinking
                             Looks like eluding

Like you’d know what that looks like.

Im looking at it
                  Or maybe its simple evasion
I getting ready to roll you a dunce cap
No right or wrong answer

It feels like there is.

Yahwell Im not tellinya how to feel thas on you
                                                    Need an example to getya goin

You do to begin
                 You call me granular
Correct

I have.
Progress
           Anwhy

You’re particular.
                   Detailed.

Youre broadstrokes

You could say.

I did
         Emerging from granular I admit I am holistic  Originally I thought thorough then I thought anal who likes to be analdifferent from liking anal   Now I believemore correctly  I am obstinate
