Week 8-23 - Haibuno

Ice hell at front door
finished edit, ordered proof
reach brainstorm limits

We have reached the time when the decision is final. Or finally executed. Or finely drafted. This all happens when your little sleepy is in americano suspension. For the fourteenth time. Or fortieth. Doesn’t matter. The minute minute is up to fate. No one but you is expecting you to figure out the details that matter. Matter is infinite.

A privileged asshole
parks up front, asks for the man
we don’t play their games

Some things you expect to happen, don’t. You can ruminate on them for eternity, and then someone comes along and says “hey, waitaminute!”. Time stands still.

Self sufficiency
requires careful planning
mapping garden beds

Beyond ready for the cold to subside and the greens to rise. Feeling rootless and rotund ready to spring. Your flattened faux hawk will astonish some, and gratify the rest - do not give up! Never ever err on that side of ever never land.
