There can be no greater style than the northern express.

That’s what they thought. Yet it sounded like the name of a train.

When you saw what they meant, it became obvious. 

Old clothes made new by spraying them with so much starch they would stand, unattended.

We are on to bigger fish today.

And somehow without you saying it, we think, so are you 

The fields of the reddest poppies fulfilled  need she knew he had, before the stars shone upon a bank clerk’s forefinger.

The covers of some boxes of swiss chocolates tell stories no-one knew, the Italian chocolates filled an atmosphere with smoke like an old wood paneled cigar lounge. 

Sometimes we wondered if lace, powder and lipstick were enough. 

Weightlifting has been paused to allow the silk threads to take center stage.

The illuminated billboards shout to people who are listening for whispers.

The answers are here, there and everywhere.

You could have walked, they could have applauded, we could have smiled.

Now you can. The coast is clear, the road is empty, the booth is free.

The landscape is as good a match for your intentions as your best fitting shoes are a good fit.

Yes, that landscape. And that.

If the potter becomes an electrician and the jeweller becomes a baker, what should the engineer do? 

If. 

Then.

That.

The rising sun is your friend.

When the light slides across the water like an endless painting.

At times the party is not the thing.

The moment, the setting and the experience are all, are everything. 

Being present is usually good, sometimes you are the only one. 

Our impression is true.

And the moon is a balloon!

You get 29.

Prices quoted just under the next full 10 units, or just over 9.99, do seem lower even if one knows the trick and thinks about it when paying for something. 

That is until you get into the tens of millions, or so you would think. 

But 59 million seems a planet’s circumference less than 60 million. 

And at 39 years old many do not wish to “be” 40, but certainly wish to “get there”. 

When all 2999 subscribers read one’s daily missive, getting one more to reach 3000 seems like cause for celebration. 

That’s all.
