A lot later, still fast paced, head in clouds feet on ground and watching the last steps of todays procedures conclude. Still tense, but also quietly relieved. A peek through an open window, there's still so much light in the city and evenings aren't long enough for everything one feels that should be done. Knowing limits, accepting constraints, playing a few chords to let the mind untangle just a bit. Have a soft night everyone wherever you are. #outerworld #concrete city #the late hours #slowing down in fast steps #early summer -

Hours later, out of sync and touch and connection and focus. Again. Waiting for remote systems to load and display data, knowing it will happen just the very moment any interaction is being made, effectively interrupting whichever process has been started too much earlier. No way around it. Short periods of rain, and silence in between. Tires of cars on wet surfaces. The voice of a cab driver talking to an intercomm across the street, increasingly annoyed. Weekdays night, open and vulnerable and no dreams to cover it up so far. Sleep safe everyone wherever you are.

Earlier than usual, later than expected and somewhere in between. Lost signal amidst piling irrelevances, trying to extract a few meaningful bits from a seemingly never-ending stream. The city's still in fast pace, a crowd of dark shadows waiting for a late bus, tips of cigarettes pulsing above small pale screens, a dog carrying a green light down to the river. Dull rusty sky, no snow no constellations but the will to dream. Sleep tight at some point, wherever you are.

Somewhere in that evening. Head still filled with these clouds to pile up all day, heavy with the dreams and fragments of too many hours fully planned yet not used. Morning started evening ending with the same music. And a slightly different mental mode. Tired. Night vision. Not-so-euphoric recall. Rusty red light. And the perception of new lanterns devoid of any flickering, painting the moment in its very own textures. A vague collection of pieces, maybe to be fit together later. Have a calm sleep wherever you are.

Hours later again and slightly unsure of certain facts, such as day of week and season and whether the streets are already or still asleep. Just across, a flat is emptied again, books stored in boxes, furniture disassembled. A single lamp shedding cold light, casting strong shadows. Noticing the things while they change, disconnected from names and faces and stepping back into the living calm of this room while rest is a hope and dreams are a promise. Have a peaceful night everyone wherever you are.
