Of Tweets & Twits

 

English is but second lingua franca. Its rich vocabulary, -ally

rhymes easily; home in song, psalm, prose … or … poetry.

The richest tongue (by -al word count) owes its wealth to heavy

borrowing from other tongues … and His timing … uncanny.

To wit: There are more English-speaking Chinese than, -ally,

Americans. More Chinese than Americans know twit … from tweet.

Tweet is oft understood; but twit? Twits are taunts. To twit is to titter, or taunt. Hmm;

why then Twitter, not Tweeter, in ?

Why Twitter and not Tweeter, albeit, an intriguing riddle isn’t the point, in ;

much more intriguing is Twitter’s, algorithm.

Algorithms are procedures or formulas for solving problems. It may be, in ,

a step-by-step set of transformative, operations.

A set of transformative, operations; such is AN ATLAS, POETIC. For therein, in ,

an Angel-Trainee, pleads for … evolution.

 

Is ISIS Winning? On Galvanizing, Humanity

Is ISIS winning? Neither Caliphate, Jewlsh state, nor indeed, any state … in these end-

games, wins.

Is ISIS winning? As Washington worries, the Islamic State is gaining, and Iran,

that’s fighting back.

Is ISIS winning? Conflict on Earth is but domestic violence however, in nonfiction,

it’s militarized.

Is ISIS winning? But domestic violence has remedies; amongst them in nonfiction

is … acculturation.

Is ISIS winning? But acculturation takes time (generations) and, in nonfiction, time, is, limitation.

Is ISIS winning? Wrong question; the larger question, in nonfiction, is: Is …

humanity, winning? -is

Is humanity, winning? Yes and no. We’ve come a long way baby but in nonfiction,

we’ve too far, to go.

Evolution to … a Human … Nation cc: @DisneyPixar @CNN

Fittingly ironic that Tunisia, a beautifully democratic Arab Spring blossom,

become (via ), and, in , a … fiction.

Would that Tunisia’s blossoming be a promising harbinger, in ,

of a nation becoming in nonfiction, a part of a human, nation.

Would that Tunisia’s blossoming be a promising harbinger, in ,

for former nations becoming prototypes for a … human nation.

Would that Tunisia’s blossoming be a promising harbinger, in ,

of nations … disunited … becoming … a united … nation.

Would that Tunisia’s blossoming become a promising harbinger, in ,

of nations disunited surreally becoming a united, nation.

Would that Tunisia’s blossoming in an Arab Spring past blossoms in

next, into an even more beautiful, Human Spring, blossom.

Imagine that an even more beautiful Human Spring were to blossom from, in

 … past-due … evolutions to … acculturation.

 

 

On Why God Revises His Story

 Anyone asking oneself, “Who and what for, am I?” is philosopher

and … in surreal, nonfiction … one’s brothers’ … keeper.

 Judaism’s six hundred thirteen laws have proven to be too numerous …

and their effect …  in, nonfiction … too onerous.

Christianity’s Ten Commandments prove too, that a marked reduction

in laws need not … more wisdom, bring … to, fruition.

Islam’s Five Commandments (haraam) govern over the morality

of human action …. Apparently, five may be, four … too many.

: Why not study then a global secular government, with freedom of religion

and but, a single, commandment … as foundation?

: That Commandment may be the singularly cross-cultural Golden

Rule: Do unto others as ye’d have be done unto ye … by them.

: “I am Lord Allah to my Muslim children, Yahweh, to my Jewish

children and God, Jehovah, to my Christian children. Kapish?”

: “And, lest I forget; I am Vishnu too. Kapish? Take from Art Everman,

my angel-in-training, the blessing of, simplification.

: if the Creator, on occasion, revises His short story (history), it may be

’cause pen and plan make editing as easy as, ABC.

ANYONE ….

Anyone who’s ever been anyone and asked oneself in , bigger

questions, is by definition a potential, visionary, philosopher.

Anyone who’s asked oneself, “Who, and what for, am I?” is, therefore, a potential,

visionary, philosopher, in dreams … -al.

Anyone asking of oneself, “Who and what for am I?” is more than nominally,

philosopher and in , a global citizen, ‘wannabe’.

Anyone asking of oneself, “Who and what for, am I?” is beyond nominally, a philosopher,

and, in , one’s brothers’ … keeper.

Anyone asking of oneself, “Who and what for, am I?” is more than nominally,

philosopher; in , keeper, of one’s … brothers’.

Anyone asking such big questions identifies her or himself as a potential #twitterfiction-al,

visionary … keeper … of one’s … brothers’.

Anyone’s near everyone in the -ally wacky world of His story, history,

and that makes, of everyone, brothers’ keepers, truly.

 

 

 

 

 

To @Twitter @Facebook @Google @AlibabaGroup; cc: @DisneyPixar @CNN

Robert H. Christie @AlibabaPRGuy at Alibaba Group: What group, in #twitterfiction,

shall emerge, as the face, of social media, institutions?

Who, (@AlibabaPRGuy), shall emerge as the dominant player in #twitterfiction,

of social media (@twitter @google @facebook) … institutions?

If only one of the social media institutions (@AlibabaGroup @facebook @twitter

@google) dominates who, in #twitterfiction may then, prosper?

Less important than the answer to the previous question is the realization, in

#twitterfiction … that shakeouts … like shit … happen.

Yeah, shit happens; shakeouts too; the trick is in positioning in .

Shakers, not ‘shakees’, shake 21st century, institutions.

E-commerce is poised to boom, on the cusp of the information age, in .

But who may prosper … with war on every … horizon?

War is on every horizon and on every wind in this surreal -al nonfiction …

maybe … what booms … won’t be .. commercial.

140 Characters … to a Rhyme

#Twitterfiction Harder to write than prose yet poetic expression is more elegantly

emotive by far, than one may ever aspire to, prosaically.

As the form of written expression most like, in #twitterfiction, a lyrical hymn,

between chapter and verse … verse is most favored … by Him.

To wit, the superlative verse of the great poets, amongst them, in #twitterfiction,

Ovid, Emily, Robert, Maya and, the immortal … William.

Willy’s rep towers. He is among the best of the west. #Twitterfiction-ally, the best

in the east … Khalil and Rumi; three … of the best.

Inspired by Him, Willy, Rumi, Ovid, and Emily, Art knows; one could do worse, in

#twitterfiction, than aspire to a poet’s, sublime, diction.

Twitter’s one hundred and forty character formula is, in #twitterfiction,

surprisingly, educational; useful, in marketing and … education.

#Twitterfiction: If, prior to an 83rd character, prospective tweeters bring to end

then a first line, then … with a rhyme … one may … end.
