sometimes i feel like the republican party is a big tornado that is coming to kill me. and the democratic party is the rickety shed that i'm hiding in. and i say "we should really fix this shed, because it's not doing much." and people say "what? why aren't you criticizing the tornado instead?!"

late fall in the trail maze at cumberland monastery!
i think what makes trail runs so special for me is the time + space + sensations that provoke an odyssey of feelings. i feel a goofy kid confidence crossing a stick bridge, then a trauma shame wave, then a happy creature encounter, all in 2 hours
