valley boy meta direct dead-set

Dear friend, you have always been
more
with the finger
on pulse of the electronic gore
slice n’ dice mix n’ match shuffling cut
to the edge than I! 

That's a mouthful, BUT
I do think
too much of that kind
of stuff
would risk creeping me
/freaking me out
enough.

I’ve a keen cool
interest in natural
uncanny valleys, such
as cryptic odd-stress syllables
in a dialogue, but that
digitally
-done-
guff hits
and overreaches my capacity for it
FAST 

With humanly-wrought things
- intentional, or not, just that
it's *natural* somehow I’ll always hold
that nothing of sense or significance is
revealed about the whole.
Not by such means.
Such a quirk or tic
only adds meaning
to do with the part,
wherein it appears
specifically.

Where the cryptic, mystic
or intriguing distortion or odd
emphasis hits!
Sits, fits, occurs. 

No overaching meaning plus,
by such flits, blips or stretches.
Just a grace note there, here, hey
no fuss. This is

a decided thing with me

Not anyhing to do with (ultimately)
the intended significance of the others’ part!
I honor that! Whatever it may be
I’m fine
with whatever they did
or might
intend, but by my interpretive art 

I rule all implication out of my take, if
I can. If it's not given plain literal enough.
it's a breeze, pretty much.

Just-as, just-is. “Hint
me no hints, for I’ll leap you no
leaps!” I say!

EXCEPTION

of course, for people longtime,
and well,
and mutually
known. That kind, those
peoples’ ways have already wormed in,
to the point
they BECOME
literal known denoted
value and meaning blocks 
and chips shot fair and level 
in any gift of sense. If…

...does that
make sense?
If so, if not,

It’s a shot from hip through
bottom-of-heart to lip!
Watch the ricochet,
for a start. Ka-pwing? 

Thanks 
for deciphering that 

if any 

thing
