A lot later and seemingly early. Not aligned with the day still, not striving to be, anymore. Appending new messages to old issue reports. Dedicated services, default credentials, procedures derailed, wondering which kind of exchange might happen with random strangers running into each other in this kind of environment. Inspiration through confusion, or əxactly the opposite. Maybe not the right time to pursue meaningful thoughts, either. No shapes in the clouds, but at least a little light in between here and the horizon. Have a safe night everyone wherever you are.
Beyond dusk once more. Training ones own ability to tell the current time from listening to the chatter and music and noises of the tired yet still awake neighbourhood, the sound of dishes and late dinners and bottles and the opening, closing of balcony doors, to the street, to the backyards, to the darkness that feels like just floating in with the wind once more, embracing, indifferent, here because it just has to be this way. Sunday evening rituals. Sunday evening mood. The usual flow. Have a soft night wherever you are.
(Core frequency slowing down. Lost a few lines of thought along the way but that feels bearable for now. Everything past this point is reprocessing and filing for another day. The challenge to hide from both dark and light until day breaks again.)
🌃 Stories of old. Safe places, mental images and the mind continuously travelling abroad. The steep way back. And everything trying to counter sleep.
9pm and on. Exercising new routes and again and again ending up on old tracks. Overcoming forces of habits as a tedious daily work. Also, spending increasingly more time setting things straight late, knowing the self of the early hours is increasingly unforgiving when it comes to missed details. A late bus departing, a taxi waiting in the middle of the streets, suitcases, backpacks and cigarettes. Giving up on finding good music for this evening. It adheres to its own melody. Sleep tight everyone wherever you are.
