Watchfulness

But there are many differences between the two species (crows and ravens), and if we can train ourselves to move beyond our overreliance on color in the identification of birds(as with most other things),it becomes clear that not all the differences are subtle ones.

Building conservation

Has a building been built with future erosion in mind? Like how cup cakes are not filled with batter to the brim accounting for overflow. Will the pillars have to bulge out to look perfectly cynlindrical later on? When is that time? Dear Mr. Keats was your thing of beauty so from the moment you saw it and did it last long? Did the joy outlast the thing?

Discobulus is a copy of a lost bronze. The value of the found ones inreases with the knowledge of history of the middle ages[1].

Staff at store

It should be easy to find brown sugar
in the same aisle as sugar
but golden brown sugar,
light brown sugar
dark brown sugar

Which of these is the
real brown sugar?
The lady in the blue walking
the aisle knew what goes
into a cake pineapple upside down

The Mountain and the Squirrel

This morning I was reminded of a poem when I came across - The mind is unaffected even by boons and curses, even as the firmly established mountain is not moved by the horns of a little beast in Supreme Yoga - and wondered if that was the first time I encountered the word mountain.
The poem had mountain and wind competing to prove their strength.

I asked my friend if she liked the next song as the singing song was reaching its end. Then followed an unexpected silence which is about to burst into a song, only I didnt place it in the automatic memory or the unconscious sequence, cause I never liked this song and always skipped it, loathed it enough to deny its existence on the CD.
