I realise that you may not recognise yourself as Dot or dot.
But, whether you do or whether you don't...
I mean.
You mean?
That's already quite a lot...
Enough?
It will have to do...
I mean.
What are we on the grander scale of things?
Are we anything more than mere specks...dots...star dust?
NOT.
Even BOWIE.
And he was GOD.
To put an over fine point on it.
Or a comma, a semi fucking colon;
Huh?
Well.
I mean.
You don't understand.
Me neither.
You mean.
We are punctuation to posterity.
(What might it mean? He doesn't know. He leaves it as a véhicule for divertissement.)
Ha ha.
That's French.
Yes.
Entertainment.
Ooh. la. la.
Ah?
Là.
A question mark?
Ha!
An exclamation mark!
A colon:
A mad dash -
ONwards...
SHIT...
-ASH.
DUST!
Shh.... (a final acronym...)
Written off, or laid down.
FLAT.
R.I.P.
Underscore _
CHANGE PARAGRAPH
I mean.
“Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there--on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.”
Carl Sagan
We are the world.
Well...a bit of it.
Punctuation to posterity.
Beat it...Michael.
Dot to dot.
DOTS...
A dot, I spent hours going dotting a page.
WHAT THE FUCK FOR?

I know not why.
I mean.
That is enough.
But there was something in the dots.
There was a connection.
Prosaic!
Prozac?
A hashtag.
Does that have a dash?
#decdoodle.
Whatever.
Just a link.
# (absurd when you think about it...on a grander scale of things)
There was a feeling.
It sparked creativity.
I suspect it is what is essential here.

What did you say Carl?
"FOR SMALL CREATURES SUCH AS WE
THE VASTNESS IS ONLY BEARABLE
THROUGH LOVE"
Carl Sagan
I suppose that is what creativity stems from.
to connect the dots we must have dots - how do we grow our dot forest? #creativity (slide from my upcoming TEDx talk) #getsmART pic.twitter.com/VmIdeBoBpT— Amy Burvall (@amyburvall) September 16, 2017
What connects?
YES!
What connects? God damn it!
TEDx
OH HI!
X now?
Amy...?
Love learning or its pendants:
Love yearning
Love mourning
Drives us.
CRAZY!
YOU
CRAZY
FUCK!
What else is there to do?
Here....
So I connect dots.

With a hashtag.
#decdoodle.

And I groan at Despacito.

I saw another video a couple of days ago that illustrates how small and insignificant we are in the universe. www.youtube.com/user/morn1415

Love the "We are the world" song. We are so much more when we connect our dots than when we stand alone.
