Goodnight friends! No cathartic thunderstorms still, but a drenched and colourless day, the thick mineral scent of wet concrete and warm, rank soaked earth fill the sodden air. Rain sometimes heavy, mostly a kind of semi-solid mist, everything drifting a little put of true in a silvery haze.

My high hopes of fixing my sleep schedule are feeling a little dashed tonight, it’s half past 4 AM and body aches, deep but diffuse, shifting like ice floes, have kept me exhausted lying half-paralysed on and off for hours. Hopefully only a temporary aberration.

May we find, and offer each other, gentleness and refuge today!
