Testing my nerve in a ‘new’ place after dark. Hares up close, & carouselled by a herd of fallow deer, so close I could smell their warm, animal scent. Bats abroad. Emotional Weather: tranquil, inquiring. 0325

The perfect, stands outside time; while imperfection, perishes with its age. Heed the wise, that good is perfection; and there is no bad, but corrupt good. #sijo 071
