Responding (notes app edition) to Stina Nyberg’s Make Hay While the Sun Shines and Sweet at Pageant

may hay while the sun shines like a prelude
to the big story of everything
like remembering the future when
humans are symbols of themselves
humans are beautiful glitching action
figures find pleasure in repetition
mischievous concepts of selves

sweet

make hay while the sun shines makes more sense once the solo suite tells the big story of everything
of a jacketasaurus, fuming, shining
of the silly way humans ruined everything
of the silly way humans will leave this earth,
finally
of the fun we had here –
try to fly, trying to dance, trying to show our moms how high we can jump, trying to make eye contact, trying to exorcise demons, trying to slow down
the big story is remembered, of course
remembered into the past and into the inevitable ends that will let this place breathe again
welcoming ends
