Trump in Atlanta: Georgia Will End Harris' 'Reign of Failure'

Former President Donald Trump, campaigning in Atlanta on Tuesday, declared that voters in Georgia would be vital in ending what he described as Vice President Kamala Harris' "reign of failure."

Speaking to a crowd, Trump focused heavily on the nation's economic struggles, positioning Georgia as a battleground state crucial to reversing the current administration's failures.

"But I'll tell you what I'm hearing. Very good things now. Has it been going on too long? We're seeing numbers, they said, 'Wow, those are big numbers,'" Trump said, referring to high voter turnout. He urged Georgians to vote immediately. "If you have a ballot, return it immediately. If not, go tomorrow, as soon as you can, go to the polls and vote."

Trump emphasized the importance of voter turnout over the next few weeks, stressing that the country was at risk of losing its identity.

"We can't lose this country. We're going to lose our country if we're not successful," he warned. Trump described his campaign as a mission to rescue the nation from what he called a "failed and corrupt political establishment."

"Everywhere you look under Kamala Harris, the American standard of living is in a free fall," Trump claimed. He criticized the current administration's policies, saying, "Nothing works. Everything they touch turns to... I won't say it."

He pointed to rising costs and economic strain on American families. "You're working more hours for less money to afford smaller houses, worse cars, fewer groceries with absolutely nothing left to save," Trump said, painting a bleak picture of the nation's economic conditions under the current leadership.

He also touched on education and immigration, asserting, "Our schools don't teach, our cities aren't safe, illegal aliens are pouring in by the millions and millions and millions, and we're teetering on the brink of World War III."

"Other than that, I think we're doing quite well," he quipped.

As the November election approaches, Trump called on Georgians to take action, stating that the state could play a pivotal role in changing the nation's trajectory.

"Three weeks from tonight, the people of Georgia are going to end Kamala Harris' reign of failure," he said, vowing that this would usher in "a new Golden Age of American success."

Trump concluded by expressing optimism about the future, saying that his vision for America would bring prosperity to "the citizens of every race, religion, color, and creed" and usher in "a golden, golden time."

Come Adventure With Me

Lyrics and music Marc Gunn

There's a secret door to a hall unknown Inside are fears that Turn me to stone Do I step forward Or head back home Which is the path for me I raise my head and Take one step more The ground it shakes. I look back to the door Feel like I’m caught and stuck to the floor And so I cut myself free

* This world’s a treasure that is full of strife Every moment can enrich your life Just face your dragons with the edge of a knife It’s a better life you see Come adventure with me.

There are ugly goblins doing scary things Deep down in dungeons there are magic rings Live or die with the riddles we bring You’ll find your way through the dark My Precious life Has so many memories Fluttering birds, butterflies in trees My home is comfort, comfort is a breeze But there’s another way to live

So many wars. It’s an endless fight To slay our dragons that soar through our night But I’m no coward. I’ll do what is right. Before I make my way home. Now I’m back with stories that ring A truth That soars up on eagle wings Let’s not forget the songs elves sing Oh the joy that they bring!

2024 NFL MOCK DRAFT

FINAL - Thursday, April 25

ROUND ONE

1 CHICAGO (FROM CAR) - QB Caleb Williams (USC)

Caleb is going #1 regardless of which team drafts him. Teams in the top-10 like Washington and New England are sure to make juicy offers. Williams is the most prized QB prospect since Andrew Luck, and once the Bears shed themselves of Justin Fields, this was a done deal.

2 WASHINGTON - QB Jayden Daniels (LSU)

The Commanders will make every attempt to trade up one spot for hometown hero Caleb Williams, but the more likely scenario is they get stuck with their 2nd choice at QB. LSU coach Brian Kelly intimated that this would be their pick at #2. Daniels takes way too many big hits, so he’s going to remind Washington of Robert Griffin III. Let’s hope his career lasts a little longer.

3 MINNESOTA (PROJ. TRADE W/NE) - QB J.J. McCarthy (Michigan)

I don’t get it, but apparently NFL GM’s love J.J. McCarthy’s potential. I’m trying to predict what WILL happen, not what I think SHOULD happen. The Vikings move aggressively and methodically up the board for their new signal caller.

Minnesota gives up their two first-rounders (11 & 23) and a 2nd-rounder next year. The Patriots - even without Belichick’s influence - continue their tradition of trading down.

4 ARIZONA - WR Marvin Harrison, Jr. (Ohio State)

The Cardinals would be profoundly lucky to be able to stay at #4 and still get the 2nd best player in the draft. Harrison seems to be custom made for NFL greatness. He’ll be the best in the league within three years… provided Kyler Murray gets his act together.

5 LA CHARGERS - WR Malik Nabers (LSU) !

Jim Harbaugh will certainly want to establish a run game in LA, so an offensive tackle might be the choice here. But Nabers is a tool too tempting to pass up. Mike Williams was a cap casualty and Keenan Allen was traded away, so they certainly have a need for him.

6 NY GIANTS - QB Drake Maye (North Carolina)

Maye is nobody’s first choice, and his bad tape is really bad. But the Giants are dead-set against Daniel Jones going into 2024 with no competition. They give Evan Neal a 2nd chance (which worked with Andrew Thomas after a lousy rookie year) and pass on Alt.

7 TENNESSEE - OT Joe Alt (Notre Dame)

The Titans commit to Will Levis and give him a valuable protector. 

8 ATLANTA - EDGE Dallas Turner (Alabama)

The Falcons have addressed their offense in free agency so they can turn to the defense in the draft. Turner is the edge defender they’ve needed for years.

9 CHICAGO - WR Rome Odunze (Washington)

The new-look Bears offense will need some weapons for Caleb Williams. Keenan Allen isn’t exactly “new.” This could be a potent connection for years.

10 NY JETS - TE Brock Bowers (Georgia)

Another new toy for Aaron Rodgers. Or at least one he’ll watch from the sidelines after he ruptures another body part on the first drive. The Jets have diddly at the position and Rodgers loves his TE’s.

11 NEW ENGLAND (PROJ. TRADE W/MIN) - CB Quinyon Mitchell (Toledo)

The Pats have a plan for the QB position, but it doesn’t involve passing on all the great players available at #11. They’ll take their top corner off the board and pair him with Christian Gonzalez to hopefully form the best pair of young d-backs in the league. Mitchell has wowed GM’s this post-season.

12 DENVER - QB Michael Penix, Jr. (Washington) +

The Broncos couldn’t make a deal for a veteran QB and they don’t have the muscle to trade up. They’re stuck with Jarrett Stidham and Zach WIlson as their QB options so far. They may opt to trade down and still select Penix, but in this scenario, they reach for him. 

13 LAS VEGAS - DT Byron Murphy II (Texas)

Signing Christian Wilkins will help the team’s interior greatly, but they still need some help there. Murphy says he’s guaranteed to be drafted in the top half of the first round. Could be BS; could be inside information. 

14 NEW ORLEANS - OT Olu Fashanu (Penn State)

The Saints have a long tradition of selecting offensive linemen high in the draft, and what a great time to have so many draftable candidates at #14 - at a time of great need. 

15 INDIANAPOLIS - CB Terrion Arnold (Alabama)

The Colts make the most of what they’ve got, but they really don’t got a lot. Just about every position is a position of need, and Arnold might end up being the best corner coming out this year.

16 SEATTLE - CB/S Cooper DeJean (Iowa)

DeJean may be needed at safety with the losses of Diggs and Adams, but he’s perfectly capable of playing corner. That may be his future.

17 JACKSONVILLE - OT Taliese Fuaga (Oregon State)

The Jags have been unhappy with their line play in recent years. Cam Robinson is average when he’s not on IR and Walker Little is little more than an effective back-up. Fuaga slots into RT immediately. He’s an excellent pass protector but he could benefit greatly by moving to guard eventually.

18 CINCINNATI - G/C Jackson Powers-Johnson (Oregon)

Adding Trent Brown helps fortify the outside of the Cincy o-line, but the interior still needs a hand. Ted Karras is a free agent after this season, so they draft his eventual replacement. Powers-Johnson can improve one of the guard spots until then.

19 LA RAMS - EDGE Laiatu Latu (UCLA) +

It’s been a long time since the Rams had a pick this high, so they need to make this count. They add to their youthful D-line with a boost to their pass rush.

20 PITTSBURGH - DT Jer’zhan “Johnny”  Newton (Illinois)

Cam Heyward is just about done, and Larry Ogunjobi is easily replaceable. Newton teams with Keeanu Benton and DeMarvin Leal to form the Steelers line of the future.

21 WASHINGTON (PROJ. TRADE W/MIA) - OT J.C. Latham (Alabama)

The Dolphins have very few picks in this draft - including just two in the first four rounds. So they make a deal with Washington, and the Commanders select the left tackle they’ve been missing for years. They see the OT’s disappearing fast, so they package a few of their plentiful picks to move back into the 1st.

Washington deals picks #36 and 67 to move up to this spot.

22 PHILADELPHIA - WR Brian Thomas, Jr. (LSU)

A.J. Brown might have overstayed his welcome in Philly. If he’s dealt before/during day one of the draft, they might have a hard time passing up Brian Thomas.

23 NEW ENGLAND (PROJ. TRADE W/MIN FROM HOU THRU CLE) - QB Bo Nix (Oregon)

The Pats are fine with Jacoby Brissett as their temporary starter, but they love the potential of Nix. He developed incredible accuracy during his 47-year college career.

24 DALLAS - OL Graham Barton (Duke)

The Cowboys built their dynasty on the backs of their offensive line. Now that key parts of their 2023 line are gone, they’ll focus on a rebuild. Barton can train at all 5 position, but he’ll be immediately needed at center.

25 GREEN BAY - OT Amarius Mims (Georgia)

The Packers made the most of what they had last year, but their offensive line was in tatters. David Bakhtiari was elite, but injuries sapped his strength and now he’s gone. Time to rebuild.

26 TAMPA BAY - OT/G Troy Fautanu (Washington)

The Bucs keep getting hit along the interior of their offensive line. With Baker Mayfield getting the big bucks to re-sign with the team, he’ll need the help of someone like Troy Fautanu to protect him.

27 ARIZONA (thru HOU) - EDGE Jared Verse (Florida State) 

The Cardinals need everything. Pick anyone. It’ll help.

28 BUFFALO - WR Troy Franklin (Oregon) 

With the fire sale going on in Buffalo right now, it’s possible the team already believes they’ve missed their Super Bowl window. Jordan Poyer and Tre’Davious White were released, and both of last season’s starting wide receivers are gone. The restocking can begin here with a speedy Duck.

29 DETROIT - EDGE Chop Robinson (Penn State)

Aidan Hutchinson needs lots of help. They’re out of Okwaras and John Cominsky ain’t getting to the quarterback. Chop is a little smaller than ideal but he’s got great athleticism. 

30 BALTIMORE - CB Nate Wiggins (Clemson)

The Ravens need to get younger at corner and quickly. Wiggins has outstanding instincts for the position, but his frame might not hold up.

31 SAN FRANCISCO - OT Tyler Guyton (Oklahoma)

Trent Willams says he wants to play for a few more years, but the Niners have an opportunity to train his replacement and acquire a top-tier backup. 

32 KANSAS CITY - WR/KR Xavier Worthy (Texas) 

With the legal troubles facing Rashee Rice - just about the only bright spot on the Chiefs wide receiving corps - Kansas City needs to grab one of this year’s elite WRs at #32. They might want to spend multiple picks on the position.

The Rev. James Reynold Cannon, 83, lately of Travelers Rest, SC, passed away at his home on May 6, 2023, after entering hospice care in January. Jim, as he was known to family and friends, was born on March 27, 1940, in Wilmington, NC to the Rev. Abram Cannon and Magalene Burney Cannon of Wilmington.

Jim left school in ninth grade to enter the workforce and went on to serve in the U.S. Navy from 1958 to 1959 before receiving a medical discharge. He earned his GED while in the military, and later went on to attend Bob Jones University from 1971 to 1976, where he studied to enter the ministry.

In 1959, Jim married his high school sweetheart, Marion Dale Millinor Cannon and went on to have three children: Amelia, who is married to Pastor William Harper; Michael, who married the former Sheila Smith; and Gregory, who is married to the former Susie Roper.

He later married Dorothy Dorman in 1989 and two adult children were added to his family: David, who was married to his wife Bobbi Jo, and Trisha, who is married to Cary Alexander.

Jim worked mainly in sales before entering the ministry at the age of 36. He then became the pastor of Summit View Baptist Church in Greenville in 1976. He served as pastor of that congregation for seven years. He later became the director of the Greenville Rescue Mission, where he served from 1983 to 1986.

In 1990, after his marriage to Dot Cannon, Jim began a new ministry in Greenville called LifeSearch. This ministry worked mainly with homeless men who wanted to seek a new life in Christ and regain a place in the workforce and the community. As an outgrowth of the ministry, Jim began Faith Bible Fellowship church and the Academy of Life in Greenville. In 1998 he also founded KingsPointe Academy, a low-cost Christian school designed to offer an affordable Christian educational option to the families to which he ministered. That school continues to operate as part of the ministry of Bethel Calvary Baptist Church in Taylors.

In 2001, his ministries then moved to Travelers Rest where he also founded KingsPointe Industries to provide jobs for those who participated in the Academy of Life. He retired in 2021 at the age of 81.

Jim's love of God and service to his fellow man were hallmarks of his life and are legacies he sought to pass down to all his family.

Jim was predeceased by his father, Abram Cannon; his mother, Magalene Cannon Downing; his brothers, Kenny, Charles, and Bob; his former wife, Marion Dale Cannon; and his stepson, David Dorman. He is survived by his wife, Dorothy Cannon of Travelers Rest; his sisters, Carolyn Fowler of Benson, NC, Margaret "Mug" Anderson of Belville, NC, and Betty Coleman of Wilmington, NC; his daughter, Amelia Harper of Nashville, NC; his sons, Mike Cannon and Greg Cannon of Anderson, SC; his stepdaughter, Trisha Alexander of Greenville, SC; his grandchildren, Jonathan Harper (wife, Jennifer), Bradley Harper, Nicholas Dorman (wife Nickole), Ian Dorman, Alan Jacob Alexander and Lucas Alexander of Greenville, SC; Thomas Harper of Tallahasee, Florida; Andrew Harper of Lacey, WA; Keren Harper Turgeon (husband, Lane) of Andover, KS; Michael Von Cannon (wife Jordan) of Fort Myers, FL; Debra Prongue (husband Matt) and Ariel Sisler (husband Anthony) of Anderson, SC; Brandon Cannon (wife Megan) of Sacramento, CA; Brianna Walsh (husband Eric) of Atlanta, GA; Joshua Dorman (wife Chrissy) of West Virginia; Nathaniel Alexander (wife Sarah) of North Carolina and 14 great-grandkids: Evangeline Harper; Wally and Freddie Von Cannon; Matthew and Greyson Prongue; Mackenzie Jennings; Julian and Layla Sisler; Robin Dale Cannon, and Sarah, Stephanie, Daniel, Carter and Cooper Dorman. He is also survived by many nieces, nephews, and their descendents.

A visitation with the family will be held at Bethel Calvary Baptist Church at 11 Easy Street in Taylors, SC at 4:30 p.m. Thursday, May 11 with a memorial service to follow at 5:30 p.m. The church will provide a meal after the service.

Jim will be laid to rest at 1 p.m. Friday, May 12 in a family plot in the New Hollywood Cemetery in Lumberton, NC. Anyone is welcome to attend either service. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to KingsPointe Academy in care of Bethel Calvary Baptist Church, 11 Easy Street in Taylors. Donations may be made online at www.bethelcalvary.com .

The family wishes to thank Interim Healthcare of the Upstate for their excellent hospice care during Jim's final months.

Florence Price, an accomplished pianist, composer, organist, and music educator, holds the distinction of being the first African-American woman to have a large national symphony orchestra perform one of her symphonic compositions. Her exceptional accomplishments under the oppressive "Jim Crow" era are a tribute to her tremendous talents and tenacity. Florence Price Florence Beatrice Price (April 9, 1887 – June 3, 1953) a native of Little Rock, Arkansas, is credited with being the first African-American woman to have her orchestral composition Symphony in E Minor performed by a significant American orchestra in 1933. Frederick Stock and the Chicago Symphony Orchestra performed this work. Florence Price was born in Little Rock. Price's early career was as an educator based in the South, first at two schools in Little Rock after earning two artist diplomas at the New England Conservatory, where she began her studies at the age of 16. Later, she served as the head of the music department at Clark University in Atlanta until 1912 after completing her studies there. Florence relocated to Atlanta, Georgia in 1910 after returning to Arkansas for a brief period of time to teach. There, at the historically black college that is now Clark Atlanta University, she rose to become the department's head of music. She was married to lawyer Thomas J. Price in 1912. She resigned from her job as a teacher and relocated to Little Rock, Arkansas, where he had a medical practice and two kids. In the already racialized community, she was unable to get employment. Florence Price, a member of the Chicago Black Renaissance, started a brand-new and fruitful chapter in her career as a composer there. Arthur Olaf Andersen, Carl Busch, Wesley La Violette, and Leo Sowerby were some of the top instructors in the city where she studied composition, orchestration, and organ. In 1928, she published four piano compositions. Price attended the Chicago Musical College, Chicago Teacher's College, University of Chicago, and American Conservatory of Music while living in the city, where he also studied music and other liberal arts and languages. In the Wanamaker music competition in 1932, her piano sonata in E minor took home first place, while her first symphony took home top honors. Frederick Stock, the conductor of the Chicago Symphony, became to like her music and scheduled the piece. After the Chicago Symphony Orchestra performed Price's composition in 1933, she became the first African-American woman to have a major American orchestra perform her work. Despite the fact that she produced hundreds of works, her discography did not become part of the mainstream canon of the twentieth century. Many of her compositions, such as two violin concertos, may have been lost if they had not been discovered during the reconstruction of her abandoned home. In addition to composing, Price continued to perform as a pianist, organist, and teacher. He also published a number of effective educational pieces. She was hired by John Barbirolli in 1951 to write an overture, and she was scheduled to go to Manchester for the premiere but had to postpone it because of a hospital stay. She was scheduled to return to Europe in May 1953 to accept an award in Paris, but her health once more got in the way, and she passed away at St. Luke's Hospital in Chicago the following month. In her honor, the Florence B. Price Elementary School (also known as Price Lit & Writing Elementary School) was established by the Chicago Public Schools in 1964 at 4351 South Drexel Boulevard in the North Kenwood section of Chicago, Illinois. The majority of Price's students were African Americans. The school was open from 1964 until the 2011 decision by the school district to phase it out owing to subpar academic performance, which finally resulted in its closure in 2013. Price possessed a piano that was located in the school. As of 2019, a local church is housed in the former school building.

The University of Arkansas Honors College hosted a performance in Price's honor in February 2019. The University of Maryland School of Music will host the International Florence Price Festival's debut event honoring Price's music and legacy in August 2020, it was announced in October 2019. Price was the BBC Radio 3 Composer of the Week from January 4 through January 8, 2021. After her passing, a lot of her creative output was eclipsed by new musical genres that reflected the shifting tastes of contemporary culture. Although some of her compositions were destroyed, Price has continued to be recognized for her work as other female and African-American composers have. The Women's Philharmonic put together a CD of some of her work in 2001. 2011 saw the performances of Price's Concerto in One Movement and Symphony in E Minor by pianist Karen Walwyn and The New Black Repertory Ensemble. Florence Price's legacy and music disappeared into history, possibly due in part to the very small number of surviving pieces. However, approximately 200 of Price's manuscripts were discovered in 2009, neatly stashed away in boxes in an abandoned fixer-upper in a Chicago suburb. The finding has resulted in a joyous rebirth of interest in her works. We may all hope that this reconsideration of Florence Price's creativity and musicality will allow her to assume her proper position among the great American composers. After divorcing Thomas Price in January 1931, Florence Price married Pusey Dell Arnett (1875–1957), an insurance agent and former Chicago Unions baseball player who was around thirteen years her older. Pusey Dell Arnett was a widower. By April 1934, she and Arnett were no longer together; it seems they never got married. Price passed away from a stroke on June 3, 1953, in Chicago, Illinois, at the age of 66.

Georgia - Missing Child for Two Years Rescued

Kidnapped Child Missing for Two Years Located in Mexico, Brought Back to Georgia Atlanta, GA (STL.News) The U.S. Marshals Service and the Smyrna Police, with the assistance of the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children, have rescued an international missing child and facilitated the arrest of her kidnappers.  The child has been returned to the U.S. and reunited with her custodial parent.  The kidnappers are currently in custody, awaiting justice. In April 2021, in Smyrna, Cobb County, Georgia, the 4-year-old girl was abducted by her non-custodial biological mother, Andrea McCord.  On that day, McCord was participating in a supervised visit with the child.  McCord took the child and, with the help of her boyfriend Custodio Guerra, fled.  Arrest warrants were subsequently issued for McCord and Guerra. After the abduction, the Smyrna Police contacted the U.S. Marshals Service and requested assistance in recovering the kidnapped child and arresting the perpetrators. The U.S. Marshals Service took the case. Utilizing their international and cross-jurisdictional abilities, advanced investigative tools, and long-established professional relationships—they located the victim and the kidnappers in the Mexican state of San Luis Potosi.  On July 15, in the city of Rioverde, Mexican law enforcement arrested McCord and Guerra and safely recovered the child.  The missing child and the kidnappers were immediately turned over to American authorities.  On July 16, the child was reunited with her father. About the investigation, arrest, and recovery, U.S. Marshal Thomas Brown said, “The United States Marshals Service takes our mission very seriously. We will never give up our search. When our state and local partners reach out for assistance, we are eager to answer the call. Helping the community and assisting the Smyrna Police is an honor. From the moment we took the case, we knew we would successfully rescue the child and bring the wrongdoers to justice. On July 15th, that day arrived. The U.S. Marshals will never stop. This young victim is now back where she belongs, in the arms of her father. The fugitives are where they belong, behind bars, awaiting their day in court.” U.S. Marshals Service Southeastern Regional Fugitive Task Force Commander Jim Joyner said, "Every now and then, we get to replace the word CAPTURED at the end of an investigation with the word RECOVERED. Both words are hard-earned but RECOVERED holds a special meaning for all of us. We are pleased and proud that we were able to be a part of the team that made this happen." The U.S. Marshals Service is the primary federal agency charged with conducting missing child recovery and fugitive investigations. The U.S. Marshals Service regularly works in concert with other federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies to seek out and arrest violent fugitives and sex offenders. The U.S. Marshals Service has established task forces throughout the nation and professional relationships worldwide to facilitate the apprehension of fugitives.

Aug 17, 1915, Leo M. Frank, the Jewish superintendent

of the National Pencil Company in Atlanta, was lynched for the

murder of thirteen-year-old Mary Phagan, a factory employee.

She had been strangled on April 26, and was found dead in the

factory cellar the next day. Frank was the last person known to

have seen her alive, and there were allegations that he had

flirted with her in the past. His trial became the focus of powerful

class and political interests. Raised in New York, he was cast as a

representative of Yankee capitalism, a rich northern Jew lording it

over vulnerable working women. Former U.S. Representative Thomas E. Watson used the sensational coverage of the case in his own newspapers to push for a revival of the Ku Klux Klan, calling Frank a member of the Jewish aristocracy who had pursued "Our Little Girl" to a hideous death. Frank and his lawyers resorted to stereotypes too, accusing another suspect—Jim Conley, a black factory worker who testified against Frank—of being especially disposed to lying and murdering because of his race.

After Governor John M. Slaton commuted his sentence from death to life in prison, Frank was kidnapped from the state prison in Milledgeville by a group of vigilantes known as the Knights of Mary Phagan (which reportedly included as members a former speaker of the Georgia House of Representatives and president of the Georgia State Senate, and other members of the Georgia House of Representatives and Senate, mayors of Marietta, as well as judges, prosecutors, and other members of the local judiciary) and taken to Phagan's hometown of Marietta where he was hanged before a local crowd.

Without addressing guilt or innocence, and in recognition

of the state's failure to either protect Frank or bring his

killers to justice, he was granted a posthumous pardon

in 1986. [O'Blivion]

method

A friend reminded me, recently, that I don’t have time (for what is irrelevant here). Have been ruminating on (avoiding the consequences of) this, since. And thinking too about the place dimension of time, as discussed by Veronica O’Keane in her The Rag and Bone Shop : How we make memories and memories make us (2021) — “One’s sense of time is inseparable from events, but this is a sense of time. Might time have something to do with place cells?” (107) and “The whole concept of time is generally unhelpful in understanding science, be it physics or neuroscience... From the perspective of recording events, the present is consciousness. In a seemingly ironic twist, I myself think that the only place that time does not exist is in the moment of consciousness...” (113)

The encountered lines — all included above from my search in pre-1923 sources — have found their respective though non-chronological places in a kind of rocking, panning motion, in which sediments settle into their respective ripples / couplets.

Would, could, does this — sequence — work (whatever “work” means) without the anchorings / tetherings / bibliographic wastefull(ness; line 9 above) that follow it? They were needed in the making, anyway, and for there to be sufficient distraction for the making to sustain.

all subject to change.
