Saying is possible but rarely advised.
We proceed irregardlessly with follies & cinnamon constellations.
Critiques welcome — albatrosses preferred.

@kira_clarke Plane-car

i totaled a Buick once. It had balled tires. Met a interstate groove that bailed not enough. The car was light-blue, I imagine that, it must have said 'We're right stuffed,' as much as myself.

@irishikunal @MonikaPourian Battle of Cannae showed the value in inverse. lesson smiles regardless of adventure.
Tolstoy showed in reflection 1000+ years later that moments sometimes come to people and leaders of people that gainsays the thrust of the teaching :)

@G_Inc0gnit0 so far, i've added a pear tree behind this tree. two more figs in the lot next door. i'm hoping to harvest for my elder neighbor, who makes jam.
hopefully, i'll have enough time here to diversify the fruits a bit more before we find the forever spot.

@missyellowrays negative interactions are mentally recalled/analyzed for years. it's a safety feature as we develop survival mechanisms. we may re-frame our negative experiences as future-teaching moments.
we could thank those that behaved so badly, so that we do not become them and still live.

2/2

When all the time runs out
and the blacktop drops away,
I’ll glide beyond the brink,
me and my cargo dwindling,

stacked to the roof,
shoved in the cab,
every shining thing I ever held.
I’m taking it with me now.

Hitch My Hearse
1/2

I hitched my trailer to the hearse,
packed every shining thing I found.
Bound for the end of the earth
where the road gives out.

Hauling heavy, sure,
but every trinket’s mine.
Past the last mile marker,
past the edge of the map.

@MilotaisFren well, i'm glad you're slinging digital lead creatively again.
i'll let you know when i start up on scribophile. should be soon. i just have to finish painting this weekend, build out two computers and mow the lawn.
monday maybe

[a sideways mob @aSidewaysMob]

@MilotaisFren yeah. i'm headed to https://t.co/1hxzAKALlN next.
it's a weird thing trying to find a use for social media. everybody feels so precious and it's pretentious to present participation trophies without any exchange in what works or doesn't land.
this platform test is winding down.

[a sideways mob @aSidewaysMob]

@DanielC55186873 there's a punchline to this one. 'homepage' and 'summoning' are outside the context of how i use the reference for this one.
anyways, thanks for reading and commenting. have a good day

Swirls Grabbin’
1/3

In the writhing ink of forgotten fjords,
tendrils and masks coil—

#forbidden dark art loosens
places no sane eye endures.

Unborn throats chanting rites,
opening portals wider than before.
The veil thins each sunrise,
and the land trembles.

@RichCheessos there's a technique called 'nerve flossing' that might help. you'll have to identity where in the shoulder girdle is causing the flare up, but there's bunches of youtube videos on the technique
