spines
winter means that the weeks are leaves of a book and the weekends are spines of the great stories of our time. the spines connect the leaves into an unending accordion. if it isn’t for the spines you can’t connect the leaves; if it isn’t for the leaves you don’t get to the spines. you can’t just have all leaves or all spines because that isn’t a book - it’s just two piles: one of stitching and glue, one of paper.
there is less than 6 weeks to go for daylight saving to start again. then, it’s a case of heading off to the bookstore.
