Well the weather looks like it’s given me a reason to be draggy yesterday, the sky is rippled with clouds and they look like they mean business. They haven’t said anything about rain yet, but they also said sunny for the week so there ya go.
There ya go.
The unit below is being gutted, and this morning I showered to dueling hammers, indistinct men’s voices drifting through the vents. I wouldn’t call it a spa experience.
And throughout the earlier hours, the sounds of destruction shouted down my own thoughts, so we arrive, later than expected, in a pocket of quiet.
I hope it lasts.
There are things afoot in the world and closer to home that are decidedly not good, but I find myself here, above the invisible wreckage happening below, unable to find a way to talk about them. Only one thought rings out louder than any drill or saw.
What did you expect?
We’re on the steep part of the downward slide now, momentum high, all caution signs ignored. There may be an exit ahead, but we don’t know for sure.
They’re definitely trying to close all the exits.
On we slip, thinking in small bites, trying not to get too close to that abyss of a center.
It does not taste delicious.
So there ya go.
I know here I am talking to all the others who warned and warned and warned, I know we saw this coming and did what we could.
Yet here we are, without many answers, while I wait once again for the hammers to fall.
The literal ones. Those metaphorical ones are halfway up the coast by now in sailing ships made of bigotry and audacity.
Anyway, that’s it for me today, I hope I didn’t send you somewhere you weren’t already going, but instead let you know, we see it too.
Have as great a Wednesday as the universe allows.
