"Bits of not- me scattering

black back light

like the stars who don’t

belong to constellations

just waiting to be named

waiting to be claimed

to fit somewhere "

Prismatic Echo? I'm not sure if I just made a word up to fit there, but it was good enough for Shakespeare so it's good enough for me.

No, I'm hearing from our commentators that it's a real word and it means the shape of a prism, so I'm sticking with it.

Oh… I really really like that… May I have "" permission to use that in another piece?

Yes of course, I hope you do use it as a starting point, I’m interested to see where you go with it!

“Interconnected” is what came to my mind.

Event Horizon. Not to be confused with the movie. Unless you liked the movie. Then confuse it all you like. OR, and I like this better. Neutrino's Lament. Ghost particles that pass through everything without leaving a trace. And I am SO aggravated that I come up with stuff that would work for a phenomenal piece of thinking for myself. But here.........have IT..........Neutrino's Lament! Perfect. No royalties required.

Lol, ok how about this: We collab on a fresh piece called Neutrino’s Lament. Then I have no guilt for using it, you have no regrets for giving it away, and we both probably still won’t get royalties 🙄😂

I've never collaborated. Well, once with Prince but that never worked out. But I'm game.
