This will delay your application
A person rides a small sled.
In busy times will also fun-
ction as a planning pad, keep
track of water intake, product-
ivity, & mood swings. Has that
thicker paper covering resistant
to bleeding. Drag & drop any-
where. It's well & good for
processes to exist but things
go much more smoothly when
total control is relinquished.

It got done. The two
legs became one. There
wasn't much traffic to
bother us. I took an in-
ventory of the icebox. His
going made the others
impatient. The car began
to slide. I was too far away
to recognize anybody.

The Thing is Unfolding
I decide to open an online store for spiritual message miscellany. Decide to call it “The Thing is Unfolding” since that covers a gamut of several religious beliefs, is not restricted to or aimed at any one particular dogma, & suggests insights into the workings of the soul.
But nobody is particularly spiritual anymore & initial trading is very slow. I add books & online courses for such manual skills as origami, flag furling, & kimono dressing. They do nothing for the financial health of the business; more the reverse, since the markets for such things are tightly controlled & their barriers to entry expensive.
Trading goes downhill. Sales hover near zero. I can no longer afford to even maintain the site let alone pay suppliers for the goods I offer. I hold a final closing down sale. I call it “The Thing is Folding.”

That different voice
Can’t tell
you anything
you haven’t
heard
before. Only
change
the timbre
pitch
accentuate
some different
syllables
in the hope
the telling
might come
a little closer
to you. It
is vanity
speaking.
