pink roses — aren't the pink sun rising — are 'social'  only? both

    "night" on famine — as one — real-time
    (walking in garbage it wasn't night) — not in time either
    'night' 'night' 'won't ever dis-place it' — it can dis-place it — where it occurs

    he doesn't trust one because it's one — observation ('so' present-time) of a real-time event (past) — to make these be the same 'in order' to dis-place 'them' and one
        _____

    "famine" "famine" is 'to be' impermanence — not formed event. 'as' quoted event, i.e. seen. — first — early, when one is a child — there

    "emotion is not the cause of impermanence."  is it? I've thought it causes. not the cause, basically, of events.

    first seeing the ship or seeing the man dying? — the ship on the ocean, heavy weighed water — black waves at dock of "famine" "famine" is emotion adjacent to observation — unfixed.
    or it is the observation/the first real-time event itself (famine) there? one will not be event.

    not 'seeing' on 'nature' — or on the mind itself either — between these? — not between these

    neither — yet 'attention' — space? not past.

    pink roses — aren't the pink sun rising — are 'social'  only? both

    "night" on famine — as one — real-time

    (walking in garbage it wasn't night) — not in time either

    'night' 'night' 'won't ever dis-place it' — it can dis-place it — where it occurs

    — to make these be the same 'in order' to dis-place 'them' and one

    'in order' — in spring, later — both.
    as it not being first, but at the same time.

    weight 'follows' — this 'a' night occurs — 'not the same thing as' — 'on the same level' — is not following ever? — 'night' is first to it.

    what's place — war in 'night' — which is occurring now

    yet to mute one's ego — which is in order for that ground to  be there

    'in order' — in spring, later — both.
    as it not being first, but at the same time.

    weight 'follows' — this 'a' night occurs — 'not the same thing as' — 'on the same level' — is not following ever? — 'night' is first to it.

    what's place — war in 'night' — which is occurring now

    a man walks up to one out of the blue — before unknown — and says one's paranoid in the context. — one viewing real-time past event of a man starving holding out his cup lying in garbage as 'its location only' — where 'one not existing now' walked — from a ship docked there — the man walking to one because only the relation in space given — in that, if the 'meaning' of the event is given (meaning as placement or context of  what's occurring only —

    that frames occurrence) that is not to dis-locate it, would be formed event only. which is what event  is (that it's already)

    it is not being an 'event' there even — at all — to  be only relational — to 'have it be' that — then him walking to one in some other [instance]

    is 'that' magnolia bud. both. but not that of the earlier event.

    is black water 'social'  only?

    — in that, if the 'meaning' of the event is given (meaning as placement or context of  what's occurring only —

    that frames occurrence)

    which is what event  is (that it's already)

    is 'that' magnolia bud. both. but not that of the earlier event.

    is black water 'social'  only?

    there is no 'social'  there
    it's  only social — same with black water — place black water to be social — yet it  is that

    pink rose — completely unrelated — pink sun rose or set? in fact.

    it is not even to state location in a different way, it is  not to re-state conditions even. (those conditions are not the ground even.)

    the man strolling to one (years ago — 'so' in time) — saying that altering of ground itself — to  be impermanence, to have it be that — that 'relational only' is "paranoid" — ? — this is beside the point. that would be to say only one saw it, it is not there — he reorders intention — to 'fix' location 'as' social?

    him not doing that 'intentionally' — isn't — there occurs location's relation first

    he says one's nature is inferior as one is outside of that which is social — by one 'as' landscape/location — 'that is not possible.' as if 'to change is not possible' or 'that is imposition'
    it is — there is no 'social'  there
    it's  only social — same with black water — place black water to be social — yet it  is that
    pink rose — completely unrelated — pink sun rose or set? in fact.

    to change  location's relation to construction of meaning — that one would not reproduce construction of self as context, in that,  ground itself is altered first and occurs as only relational
    conversely, by time being abandoned — it is not based in time — the man holding out his cup not caring, because he's dying, once seen lying in garbage, by being in the writing's placement as relational location, is not relegated to time (is not 'in memory' only)
    it is not even to state location in a different way, it is  not to re-state conditions even. (those conditions are not the ground even.)

    his running forward 'as' anger — conceptual 'as' seen, (though he's not running there) —
    another man there responds to this in physical/conceptual as it is 'seen' (seeing it) which meets (aggressive — to not continue it) that conceptual outside — which is occurring.
    a line on space as if 'nature's' horizon — the two men are seated at a table.

    but the man seen by the other man there doesn't see himself. and oneself sees him also.

    a line on space as if 'nature's' horizon — the two men are seated at a table.

    seeing it not the ground of it — also —

    anger in the man who's actually not running/and running to one. 'not a black dawn/a black dawn' itself.
    (the black dawn/his anger – can occur) also

    as in reverse (rather than the day in it) — the blossom isn't in the day either

    'not a black dawn/a black dawn' is real-time only.

    whirling beggars fighting in the dust — while the high rugged brown mountain crags are still, a day-moon is lying on a high brown jutting mountain top.

    anger in the man who's actually not running/and running to one. 'not a black dawn/a black dawn' itself.
    (the black dawn/his anger – can occur) also

    (that one has lost 'a person' — yet one knows that person
    anything's dependent and pervasive)
    — who therefore carries a weight — separate — blossom 'and' day — both

    as in reverse (rather than the day in it) — the blossom isn't in the day either

    how 'bout an owl?

    how 'bout an owl?    its 'singing' drawing answers — (?)

    wants to see — 'authority' — of 'other' men — from one, that one would be of only 'them'
    there being only 'them' 'so' he is subjunctive

    'not a black dawn/a black dawn' is real-time only.

    beggars whirling in dust fighting
    whirling beggars fighting in the dust — while the high rugged brown mountain crags are still, a day-moon is lying on a high brown jutting mountain top. the day-moon and mountain's separation (while moon is lying on mountain's top) in the high fawn-brown blue atmosphere

    is [that] [people's joy]
    a day-moon at the same time as a brown high mountain — their separation

    the day-moon lying on the mountain — their separation — it's on high altitude jagged crag desert.

    military wolves — still shoot the people in a stone-fenced corral open on a brown mountain and bury the corpses in a shallow grave until the families come to pay the army to retrieve them for burial.

    military wolves

    place black water to be trees-ocean

    trees' ocean at night —  anyway

    the land is the roof. as if the blue atmosphere on fawn-brown were the floor of something else is high dun separation.

    "The army is the people's friend."

    "Luck in the day. Luck in the night."

    the day-moon and mountain's separation (while moon is on mountain's top) in the high brown blue atmosphere

    is [that] [people's joy]

    military wolves

    place black water to be trees-ocean

    subjectivity/not-and/language 'as' black dawn  only

     then (when alive). — (subjunctive.) — black dawn isn't? — so it has to pass. both.

    subordinate nothing black trees-ocean night

    magnolia buds — that haven't opened — subjectivity/language  only — both.

    subjectivity/not-and/language 'as' black dawn  only —  and the man there is in anger, 'really.'
    he consumes 'forward'

    is subjunctive — the man starving dying lying in garbage? — there not being black dawn — ?

    no. not anyway — that is, anywhere. — or: subjunctive is  only 'social.' both.

     then (when alive). — (subjunctive.) — black dawn isn't? — so it has to pass. both.

    subordinate nothing black trees-ocean night

    to ignore one's shape/events 'so' it goes on wildly —  and — anyway.

    magnolia buds — that haven't opened — subjectivity/language  only — both.

    words 'black dawn' as shape (instance that has no 'other' occurrence) which is 'their shape/and their  conceptual shape.'

    to subordinate magnolia buds — that is real-time — both.

    words 'black dawn' as shape (instance that has no 'other' occurrence) which is 'their shape/and their  conceptual shape.'

    to subordinate magnolia buds — that is real-time — both.

    'not' for there to be 'magnolia bud (not-opened)' —

    bud 'dis-placing' is lineage — both. single is 'tree's buds there' (as  only one's 'social' — at the same time.

    people's behavior being blossoming trees —  per se — and the action of it in the trees blossoming prior — which is separate, sole

    change in blossoming trees occurring prior to (trees). (then blossoming trees being 'social' only.)

    a given in space — dis-place blossoming trees.

    'on' experience — so one's 'isn't,' is obliterated —

    — magnolia buds — not-opened — 'is' single

    one's 'going for/observing' — leads to — (then:) 'emotion is lineage'

    —  as causing event. — 'not the cause basically of events' — one's? and is occurring

    'not' for there to be 'magnolia bud (not-opened)' — is lineage —

    bud 'dis-placing' is lineage — both. single is 'tree's buds there' (as  only one's 'social' — at the same time.

    people's behavior being blossoming trees — per se — and the action of it in the trees blossoming prior — which is separate, sole

    bound as 'split' (one's) 'to' conception of change as, or in, behavior —     that was not when a child
    rather than in blossoming trees — everywhere as ground is an ocean here

    so 'split' is  that only — ocean 'in' blossoming trees — 'in fact' has to be to change people's behavior/one's as sole

    in fact — itself — isn't  then. change in blossoming trees occurring prior to (trees). (then blossoming trees being 'social' only.)

    The moon is socially-based [box] a given in space [box] dis-place blossoming trees

    'on' experience— so one's 'isn't,' is obliterated — by the referring. place this to: seeing 'at all' is social —  is blossoming trees

     or when one's outside there (so there's moon  there) — as outside is the only existing — both

    'as' 'blossoming trees' are one's subjectivity/language 'there' —

    there is no basis of the blossoming trees — there —

    and is 'as' one's subjectivity/language — 'there'

    — one's subjectivity/language — him lying starving in the street — or crossing the street — is?

    'the blossoming trees' —

    black trees then?

    — yet to conceptually place the site only in relation in space (to foreground and background, or future, simply) — to buildings — is  not to iterate those as conditions, present

    his dying is to be  not in relation to space, or to conjecture

    'as' 'blossoming trees' are one's subjectivity/language 'there' —

    and is 'as' one's subjectivity/language — 'there'

    'not' for there to be 'magnolia bud (not-opened)' — is lineage

    bud 'dis-placing' is lineage — both. single is 'tree's buds there' (as  only one's 'social' — at the same time.

    bound as 'split' (one's) 'to' conception of change as, or in, behavior —     that was not when a child
    so 'split' is  that only — ocean 'in' blossoming trees — 'in fact' has to be to change people's behavior/one's as sole
