Heidi’s head was oft in the clouds—if it was not heaving a push of tangles of bush—whence, it should be noted, she cared not whether her presence there was either singular or of pair—for, indeed, she was hearted a free bird and any obligation that presented in her periphery the sense of being restricted by an ornithon would, then, require flight—away from heeding such linear scripts black and white, rerouting via arboreal trips skied high—quite. ; )

That which caused this head-turned pupper to balk its walk?

Dashed what surreptitiously round that border wall?

Or, from leaf-slicked copestone, did a squirrel just fall?

Why is mum’s best friend now in this glade all alone?

Was not she just beside me with pocketed bone?

These leaves are surely alive—they skitter and squeak!

Oh my! How can I survive forest fright so bleak?!

Wait! Who is calling my name by familiar voice?

Ghost’s spooky trick? Yelp noise! Hooman with stick? Rejoice!

Huh? She just paused to pick Newtoned apples for pie?

*That* was the thump of lore that led me to cry why?

Okay, back on track—towards dessert—is awesome.

Phew! Brisk whisk, wild’s risk—keeps paws on toes in autumn! ; )

For no more karoshi, work like a dandelion: by petals for sunning rather than pedals for running, through blowing—instead of owing—clocks, and in accordance with leaves, roots—not heaves, boots. ; )

Indisputably, two heads are better than one. But, lies there proof—within the fielded standards of neuroethics—that, say, three queens always beat a pair regarding confirmation of cognitive capacity? For what of flushing a counter result if it plays participants as pawns? Perhaps, handing validity to any certain claims of the mind’s undiscovered country is ever tenuous regardless of applied appositeness. ; )

Carrie, promised she could keep her current position on the merger’s board, opted for a zwischenzug instead—boarding positions down under, where holding shares of surf turf would capture winning waves whilst checking mates’ materialism at their played-players’ door. ; )
