Slowpoke: A coronation and a raindance


Don't rest and the next thing your tired eyes will see is the coronation of the fool. Whether it be carnival, or some twisted reality that you were unaware that you were a part of, should you miss out on your sleep you'll be sure to see the rise of an all engulfing bureaucratic ineptitude. Stressed over structure and efficiency, the world will surely descend to such a level that quickfix solutions are tantamount to advancement. Be wary of he who does not value his excursions into the land of Morpheus.

I say, let's avoid this wretched fate of fatigued short sightedness and take some guidance from slowpoke. Let's take it easy. Maybe not to the extremes that slowpoke is want to practice its lethargy, but rest my friends.
One day at a time and you're sure to make some progress. I promise that life'll be just as beautiful. Aye, a bit pockmarked, mucky, occasionally temporally anesthetized, but radiant in its slow moving splendor. Like stellar nebulae whispering breaths to their estranged lovers across the 'verse.

The Show.
