*WOW* - World of Wonder!

think of a long field, you're walking from one end to the other,
there are walls at the end. you throw javelins. you have limited
time and resources. as you approach the farther wall, your
throws are shorter. when you reach the end, nothing. there's
another field. someone remembers your name for a meter or so.
some stuff survives near the ten meter line. they look around.
they keep going. they throw javelins. it's the World of Wonder!.
there's another field and another. the World of Wonder! is
everywhere! forget everything you ever learned. javelins are
thrown. javelins throw themselves. people walk. it's the World
of Wonder!.

*/Here I improvise. Here I am not so good at improvisation.
I am not so good at *this thought.* I do lose myself. My
thought is poor, not pure. I am not focused. I am not *full
of thought.* I am at sea unmoored. I am in flight untethered.
I despair need time to heal. I need time for structure. I
need creation-structure. I come from there, this creation.
I do this horribly. I am horrible here./*
