I'll weld these fragment together today. Then the newest work will be done. I write this now, but it often turns out otherwise. I have an idea for these bits, but it's open to change. I like using certain techniques that I've mastered. It separates me from those who can't do as much. The more apart I become, the more personal I am. I'm not a herd animal. I prefer a solitary status. Like certain creatures who tend to go off on their own, putting distance between themselves and others of the same species. Who wants to belong to a school of minnows? I want to be like a bear, a mountain lion, even a mountain goat. A beast that keeps to itself as much as possible. I see no harm in such a wish. It's not as if I'm anti-social. I know how to behave in a crowd, or at a party. As a poet wrote: "I don't hate people, but I feel better when they're not around." I tend to agree. Except in rare instances. With rare women or men. Mostly pretty women.
