A wind was blowing.
Stuff was being blown around our heads. I bent to my work
trying to make sense of the storm.

I got thrown onto this veranda,
landing on a
little bed with nice quilting. I heard footsteps I hoped was
but nope. It wasn't.
What I am doing making note of all this, I
do not know.
But I am planning to compile everything into a book
I shall call "Notes."
