One of the most popular Piero Umiliani records.

“lakeside”

amidst one mooting · maze or labyrinth
clear shapes cluster · seem clues haply
angled arrow · occupying my thoughts
shine of the shabby · paved passage
a labyrinth leads · through long detours
a maze mocks · with meaningless choices
saffron into suffering · sensibly drawn
nor can i tell what tokens · i should take for found

The Skeleton Dance.

Frog looked through the window. 'Toad, you are right,' said Frog. 'It is a mess.'

Toad pulled the covers over his head." --@frogandtoadbot.bsky.social

"The Covid-19 pandemic worsened isolation, but tech had already made redundant many of the ways we used to congregate and mingle, while often portraying those ventures into the world as dangerous, unpleasant, inefficient and inconvenient."
