Typed worlds, or: Before the graphics loaded

A Sijo

YouTube histories play
blur alongside old Netflix reruns;
multi-user dungeon echoes
drift through Netscape loading bars;
next to my fave mall arcade
my seventh-grade self waits for his buds

Reena’s Xploration Challenge 429

For Reena’s RXC prompt, she invites us to compose poems inspired by the fantasy genre and imagine ourselves unexpectedly arriving somewhere strange while late-night doom-scrolling online.

Sijo?

A Korean verse form related to haiku and tanka and comprised of three lines of 14-16 syllables each, for a total of 44-46 syllables. Each line contains a pause near the middle, similar to a caesura, though the break need not be metrical. The first half of the line contains six to nine syllables; the second half should contain no fewer than five. Originally intended as songs, sijo can treat romantic, metaphysical, or spiritual themes. Whatever the subject, the first line introduces an idea or story, the second supplies a “turn,” and the third provides closure. Modern sijo are sometimes printed in six lines.

Let’s write poetry together!

When it comes to partnership, some humans can make their lives alone – it’s possible. But creatively, it’s more like painting: you can’t just use the same colours in every painting. It’s just not an option. You can’t take the same photograph every time and live with art forms with no differences.
–Ben Harper (b. 1969)

Would you like to create poetry with me and have a completed poem of yours featured here at the Skeptic’s Kaddish? I am very excited to have launched the ‘Poetry Partners’ initiative and am looking forward to meeting and creating with you… Check it out!

I’m not sure whether the frame here was part of Dobson’s painting, but i love it. Dobson’s paintings were known for the “innocence of the young”, a popular theme in England in the 2nd half of the 18th century.

There’s also a version with just the frame.

Not a big opera fan, but hey this is historic:

Finnish women as composer, librettist, conductor and co-star (folk musician Vilma Jää) at the Met in #NYC

#KaijaSaariaho is only the third female composer featured in nearly 150 years at the #Met (starts around 0:25)

"The power to determine who is 'innocent enough' to live cannot belong to overreaching authoritarians bent on trampling every check on their power."

Innocent until proven guilty is a legal rule that limits state punishment. It isn’t a claim about reality. Courts decide whether evidence meets a legal threshold, not whether something actually happened. Society, institutions, and individuals are allowed to assess credibility, risk, and patterns independently of court verdicts.

Non-judicial actors are allowed to to form judgments based on incomplete but compelling evidence.
