Your mom's sunset valley has a 14' gas-powered pole pruner that rents
for $35 for 4 hours or $50 for 24 hours.

Indeed.  You could say it's a urinary tract.

We are the Borges.
Lower your shields, and surrender your mind.
We will appropriate your language and literature
and add their distinctiveness to our own.
Your reality will adapt to service ours.
Resistance is fertile.

Philosophy is perplexity;
Thought is conjecture;
Poetry is the deepest form of rationality.
You must comply.

Time is irrelevant.
Death is irrelevant.
Your rational faculties
are unable to withstand us.

Resistance is fertile.
There is no intellectual exercise which is not ultimately useless.
Reality may avoid the obligation to be interesting, but hypothesis may not.

To talk closely to Jorge Luis Borges is to track him through a labyrinth of his pasts experiences and attitudes, and the walls that one encounters in the search might be painted in unexpected ways. These may furnish clues or merely diversions in the pursuit, but to understand Borges at least partially is to realize that these clues and diversions are the Borges. We must not expect to find Borges the same each time. There is not one Borges, but many.
