​Chocolate Anachronisms Bassoon Gothic in my Quantified Monastery Starship

Bobby Parrott

When the monk and robot in me scuffle, my tongue bumps conceptual 
flavors up to a less viscous engine-stressing paradigm. Intimacy exposed 
for its extra-neural introspection, the mocking nature of nonspatial dips 
into the silicon circuitry dubbed 'pondering the pink.' Not something you 
can learn or teach, but only experience. My bassoon parts accept me as a 
non-digital human, so why can't you? In the simulation I look like
the 
urgency of a thrombosis, but for  this charade, this stepchild upload, we 
first reconfigure an end-of-the-world singularity paradox, the more 
practical nanotechnology of this monkey-business gone baby-babble. Like 
when we ignore our need for the identity-crushing inoculation of unisex 
robots probing for unscissored irrationality in their out-of-body Band-Aid 
bassoon modes. Think of it. Unspoken, we crisscross interstellar time with 
present-tense melt-down denialism, a corporeally dualistic factor spinning 
out capitalists at the press of a button. Infinity has never eaten so well. Nor 
has causality, mental construct that it is. Boxed clear up to uncanny, cosmic
impressionism has a success rate mathematics could never hope to 
extract
from mere genetic asymmetry. The orality of red-shift Doppler the 
new
infantile. But please consider guiding extra tenderness toward your 
fellow
beings. This chocolaty galactic bassoonist would, her ghostly tones 
​
asquirm.

Bobby Parrott is radioactive, but for how long? In his own words, "The intentions of trees are a form of loneliness we climb like a ladder." His poems already haunt or are forthcoming in Tilted House, RHINO, The Hopper, Rabid Oak, Phantom Kangaroo, Neologism, Whale Road Review, and elsewhere. Immersed in a forest-spun jacket of toy dirigibles, he dreams himself out of formlessness in the chartreuse meditation capsule known as Fort Collins Colorado, where he lives with his partner Lucien, their top house plant Zebrina, and a flippant hyper-quantum robotic assistant Nordstrom.
