unknown variance. find 'x' with the exclusion of the 'y' value.
days seems to dribble into the next.
and two nights ago, i had a vision of a whale. i awoke, away from the pounding freeze that
sometimes seeps into my window at night, in a dead sweat. the heater had been on all night.
i turned it off. and i saw a whale, dead, in a large pasture. miraculous. swirling overhead were
squawking, twittering seagulls, feasting, or soaring, or pecking away at the rotting carcass of
this majestic sea creature. now that's something else. then i imagined a substitute grade school
teacher, flat as a pancake, pinned under the whale. she is dead as well, but she has died smiling
because she was sleepwalking in the middle of this pasture when the whale dove from the realms
above to the ruddy earth below. immediately, i began developing a story around it, but not wanting to
overexceed my ambitions, especially at the witching hour (which it was) of the night, i casually drowsed off
before r. called and led me into the morning. a titan fallen...
'night!
