Gerunds in Spring
I will describe the weather: It is a bit cloudy and any number of degrees It is like a lamb coming and a lamb going and a lamb strolling on a knoll, a lamb beginning We are all bored with it so we describe it all day: It was like a lamb peeling an onion Clouds are like spring bulbs It was like an onion rubbing up against a cheesecloth Go get your kayak The air is a peaceful warrior We are bored so we describe all day A tree rocks I think about my own dying I mean I get to thinking about my own dying
Dash Maker
what does it mean to you that the dash maker is operating at all times how is it different from if the dash maker were some times at rest why is it meaningful that there is no part-time work for the dash maker why is it special that the dash maker’s work always get done what happens when the dash maker lags how does it affect you how are you impacted when the dash maker goes off duty how does it show in your innerface when he comes back imagine if what you chose to manifest you had to for the rest of your life
Mirror Maker
the mirror maker should be feared controllably and barely dealt with do not ever commission him I repeat for a project of your own making do not approach him if you have something original thought up like an idea and you are near him with your mitten or mittens never try to wipe the smudge you see you will only spread the smudge he hates this if he should bubble back up by walking away do not grab for your walking stick I said you must control your fear

his materials are his greatest secret it is hard to know which of them is safe I don’t know if they are quills he sews I don’t know if they are spindles he uses if he sews if they are bird spines if he sews them blindly hating to see what he has done if they are synthetic if he jabs them into the trunk which everyone knows is water I suppose not all his materials are mysterious
