AUTHOR.CALHO: If I didn't write it, I would be hitch hiking cross country to Maine and then Alaska in that order. While taking frequent breaks to spread leaflets. And sit in diners. And write on things because I wasn't at a computer. I may still do that in a few years. Writing this also helps me forget about and better understand the limitations of being human, and keeps me busy enough to allow me no free time to burn the world down.

THEMATIC.ABOUT : Collapse often. The things that hold people together and hold them apart and scatter brains. The things that make thoughts go boom. The things that ooh and aah and [expletive deleted]. Sometimes poking around the margins where responsibility ends and the only one to look to is the Original Equipment Manufacturer and say "but, I already pressed 9 for more options and the menus are exactly the same. Can you just replace it?" The answer will be: "please hold." Sometimes hanging out in dark corners. Sometimes following the train tracks. Looking for ways out and ways in and all the while sharing the things seen and heard and done and drawn and written and scorched and healed and teased and caged and dreamed along the way.

Woven

Sometimes you pick up old threads.  You smell them and lick them to try to gauge where they've been since last they touched your fingertips.  You blow dust off the fibers and sneeze and cough in the cloud of dust, but watching it settle, holding the thread tight, the cloud looks and smooths the same way the cloud grew to the point where you knew you had to close your eyes or bite your lip through opened eyed pangs.

And then you have it again.  Like a goonie boobie trap.  Wonder where it will go.  Wonder what will come of it and how you will get out of it this time.

Restraint is flagging.  I don't know why.  Because it's easy?  How many times can you be rabbit punched with no referee interference before you are allowed to say "I do not want to play anymore?"

We'll see.  The tapestry is reduced to threads,  With fingers we make.
