With mosquitoes or without… One is about the same as the other. Which time is better is difficult to say… Only that the time without is an emptiness, a time of hopeful waiting… A hopeless hope to avoid the time of the mosquito. But then, again, comes the time of the mosquito.

Two times...
With mosquitoes or without… One is about the same as the other. Which time is better is difficult to say… Only that the time without is an emptiness, a time of hopeful waiting… A hopeless hope to avoid the time of the mosquito. But then, again, comes the time of the mosquito.
This arrived after reading Walt Whitman just before bed.
