getting our bearings straight for ye olde bear-cat day holding a soft likeness of a black and white bear wondering to call the bear an "orc" or "bee-wolf" asking a wild frog who calls them "the brown ones" bursting into the house asking for a dark beer wanting only the beer / not wanting to wear green holding a pound of gold bought many years ago (?) finding that luck in life calls for some speed as well packing away the things from the shared house today seeking to have less clutter in the newer house driving away quickly from the rough old boroughs choosing no longer to live in these crowded hubs showing up at midnight to a dark shady room lining the loud ones up against the gray stone wall getting ready to shoot them all with some quick shots taking them out and burying them underground having taken some snapshots we set the seeds down letting the old things fall so that we can spring fresh making this a do-over for a brand old year cleaning the house up before cleaning the world up springing too quickly into a new shape of things drawing a landsheet to show all those spots and hubs tinkering with the landsheets and now the spreadsheets having a deeply rooted wrath for those big rings keeping all the wealth locked up away from the crowds weaving around the networks like a drunk knitter looking high and low for the things we might have missed fishing around the seas for a new line of thought picking up on the breakdown of the old network finding that things leave without ever coming back knowing that the "lorehouse" no longer teaches things seeking ways to get back into the living world getting an inkling for something new and helpful seeing the light at the end of the tongue shifting looking at the now through a looking glass backwards walking backwards into what will become of us choosing not to hold on to the old ways of yore seeing time as a twisted spring that shrinks each year seeing trends ring around in five (not twenty) years smelling the slow shift from one time to another seeing time now not as split-up chunks but long flows splitting time up only for the look and feel now smelling time only happens when the time lies near smelling much less of the time when it lies further writing a thing many times by setting blocks down letting these new tools make men want to wander off letting these new tools make new groups and ways of life laughing at those who wield the new tools like the old having the drawn strips let us fill in the meanings going from the heights of meaning to none thereof choosing not to spell things out for those reading this melting stones into flat pools which line up to here walking into the dark woods of the deep meshwork sharpening up the "raven flint" to make it shine shifting back to the days of the early network shifting but with the sharper tools that we have now making the new tools house the old writings at first taking them from the old to the new we go up becoming one group again? seems like not at first! having yet our minds raised to even newer heights becoming lighter so we can become harder choosing not to be one but become another world spreading half-truths online can seem so "fake and fey" letting out steam which becomes water on flat leaves
