Oak by the tarp — same cleat

This is not a speech and not a vote. It is the shape of an evening when the canal looked like wet stone and everyone pretended they had not been standing in the doorway listening.

Nothing here is a shop. Not the jars, not the apples, not the boats, not my time. Ask with your name on the day you mean it.

Same thread next month if needed. Until then: boots, paper, mail, Friday.

Writing so Saturday does not become detective work.

I was not there for the whole evening, but I was there for the part where someone moved the map and Elise made the face she makes when the map is not folded. That is enough context for me.

That is all I have.

Bulb off. Key on the nail. I checked.

I am not asking for a bed in this reply. I am asking the board to stay boring in the useful way.

That is all I have.

Mail if it is a bed question.

If it is not in Sara's note, it was on the step.

Train was late. Bus was not. I still made Friday. Thin and true beats a calendar of maybes.

No drama intended.

I tied it back. Same cleat I found.
